Gotta love the WHOOSH effect!

I can't prove that the whoosh effect is real, but I'll be damned if it didn't happen to me last night/today!
All day yesterday I felt squishy. I noticed that when I undressed at night, I had an indent in my skin from where my pants sat. They aren't tight on me, and I never had that indent. So my curiosity got the better of me and I started poking around. I noticed that everything felt loose dimply. I also noticed that I seemed to go to the bathroom on a higher ratio of what I drank all day.
I am a daily weigher, more for record keeping than anything. Well this morning I was down 2.6 pounds from yesterday. It's tough to mark any progress yet as this is my first week with the higher calories, but I had been steadily gaining all week from 198.2 on Monday to 199.8 on Thursday. Now this morning 197.2.
So while it is not scientific at all, I believe in the WHOOSH effect!

I didn't know this was a phenomenon, and I like it! Well done on the progress-I just increased my cals by 500 last week, too, and felt so miserable and bloated and gross, then this a.m. wore my skinniest jeans without a problem! Keep up the fantastic work!0
