    After all that exercising and walking the muscles retain fluid so thay can work and move and then heal. In the next couple of days drink lots of water before during and after exercising.

    Do this for a month, weigh yourself in the morning, after you use the bathroom, naked. Write down that reading. Then, every night, weigh yourself again, same situation, after bathroom usage and naked...write down that reading. At night you will almost always be heavier according to the scale, and lighter when you wake up.

    You will see gains as much as 8 lbs during the day depending on water intake, sodium, sleep, workouts, etc. In the morning you may or may not be a pound or two heavier than the day before, or you may be the exact same, and then like magic, you'll may drop a pound or three.

    The scale is not the best way to measure weight loss...too many variables. It will give you a rough estimate but it may be off by about 3-8 pounds for a myriad of reasons.
