Water weight comes back?

hello! I could just use some understanding on a topic I saw mentioned before.
There is a thread that explains in maintanence you gain about five pounds due to restoring glyogen levels and water weight(something like that I can't remember exactly).
If you fit into a dress, then hit maintanence for a week and gain the five pounds, is it a noticeable gain? Similar to if you ate 5lb worth of calories and gained an inch all around? Or would you still retain the figure and fit into the dress, you just happen to weigh 5 lbs more now?

Sorry if this isn't the clearest, I find it harder to be clear on my phone.

    You will retain your figure. Most glycogen is stored in the muscles, so it looks like pretty, lean mass. You still got rid of the fat.

    Thank you!
    I have a goal weight, but I already got into the clothes (which was my main goal not a number). But I worried if I ate at maintanence now if perhaps I would lose being able to fit in the clothes with the 5lbs.
