    It wont prevent the physical loss of body mass but it can make you retain some water. However your body weight will naturally fluctuate throughout the day/week any way due to water weight (sometimes up to 3 or 4 pounds a day). Unless you're consuming silly levels of it or have a medical issue I wouldn't over worry about it. We actually need it to function properly anyway

    I don't know that it'll prevent weight loss. It makes you retain water. I have to keep my sodium intake in check because of my blood pressure. I feel ALOT better when I keep it under the recommended daily amount.
