Have you ever bought 4.41 lbs (2 kg) of lard? It takes a huge volume! It also holds a lot of chemical and potential energy! This means a lot of calories. If you ever have watched your calories, and/or dieted, you know that you can’t loose this much body fat from one day to the other. You also don’t gain such an amount of fat over night.

You can’t gain 4 lb over night!

The reasons for waist fluctuations are that your body holds water and/or you are constipated. Therefore, it is the same as it was with PMS. Recall when you go to the sauna you loose about that amount of weight by sweating. However, after you drink your water, your weight goes back where it was before the sauna visit.

Staying hydrated and being careful with eating salts helps to avoid holding excess water.

The Good News

A good thing is that we get rid of the mess and the pain, but it is in exchange of hot flashes and unpredictable times of holding water.

When you wear your boyfriend jeans with the intended “it is slightly too big around the waist because it is from the boy” then they are are a great option too to stay in style, even when you feel “fat” because of the extra weight or better water.

Fun Fact: When you are a size S, the extra weight makes up a higher percentage of your body weight than when you are a size M, L, or XL.
