By weight, I mean water weight. Seems counterproductive but I have read a few articles about how your body will hold onto water if you don't drink enough of it. Those to who weigh in daily, does this happen to you?
I only weigh in once a month, today was one of those days. I lost 3lbs which is way below my predicted weight loss (I make very conservative estimations and I actually always underestimate my predicted weight loss).
There are two things that I am thinking could have caused this. I am struggling with constipation at the moment. I have had one small bowel movement (yesterday) in the past 10 days... happens every single time I cut my calories but my body adjusts after a while... just waiting it out.
Also, I noticed my water intake for the past 3 days was WAY below normal. I normally drink 3-4 litres a day, the past 3 days I was averaging 1 litre. I hadn't been feeling too well, super drained/stressed so I didn't even notice. Could this be the culprit?
edit: I have lost 2 inches from my waist in the past month so I definitely think a 3lb loss is way too little... no weight lifting or new exercise. Same old cycling or walking. I doubt I have gained muscle especially considering I am eating 1200 to 1400 calories a day.
