Did I gain 6 pounds in one day!

Question

yesterday morning I weighed myself and I was 200 this morning I was 206? I did cheat a little yesterday had a lot of sodium😣 so is that it? maybe water weight? I just can't see how this is possible😓

Answer

You weigh a lot more in the mornings, which is why you shouldn’t weigh yourself as soon as you wake up. Yes, the sodium caused water retention but when you’re sleeping, your spine also retains a good amount of water which is why you may feel a bit taller when you get out of bed and that adds more weight. The water will excrete itself throughout the day.

Answer

Just water weight.
Don't weigh yourself daily; it only causes anxiety like what you're experiencing now. Our weight can fluctuate upwards of five pounds within a single day, based on water retention, food in our stomachs, whether or not we've gone to the bathroom recently...
Better to give yourself a range. My target weight is 150, so if I weigh in anywhere from 145 to 155, I'm happy.
