    What are your sodium levels at? If you're taking in too much sodium you might be retaining water, which will make you heavier and bloated. :(

    I sort of need more information to help you, really. :)
    How long have you been doing pilates? Have you been drinking more water than usual / eating more salty things than usual before your weigh in?
    Also, make sure to do at least one rest day a week, where you just stick to the walk and some stretching or something, I'd say. :)

    Being constipated can cause weight gain, and if you're not drinking water, it's very possible that that is your problem.
