WTH?...How did I gain 3 pounds in a few days??

You need to realise a 8oz glass of water weighs... well 8oz (0.5lb), if you drink the recommended 8 glass's that's that's 4lb of liquid & then there's food in your stomach/intestines/bowels that will also add weight. This will cause a lot of fluctuations though out the day, but this is not body fat or lean muscle, it's just the weight of the stuff in you & you will pass it. As someone already mentioned, make sure you drink plenty of water to stay hydrated & help your body let go of excess water.

I weigh myself once a week in the morning before I eat or drink anything & after I've been to the toilet.
