so last week i went away to visit my family and i had a great time, my diet i dont think did, i had a LOT OF bad food!! i came back and weight 1kg more... 87kg, that was 2 days ago, just hopped on the scales and theyre saying im now 85.4?? i eat my full 1300 calories, and i weigh myself around the same time everytime i decide to weigh myself? i spend 15 mins on my bike a day but surely thats to quick to loose that much weight?? anyone have any simular experiances or know why such a rapid drop?

    you were just retaining water, the "bad" foods you ate while away probably were high in sodium...

    So you gained 1Kg from a short period of bad eating, then lost 1.6Kg in two days. Nothing weird about that. Most of the weigh gain as stated was water. Also, your cheat raised you Leptin levels so that losing weigh is easier, at least for a little while.

    Whenever I eat super-salty food, I can hop on the scale and be four pounds heavier. Ever since I've noticed that, I've tried to limit foods high in salt, and now I feel like my measured weights are more true.
