Or if you drink too much caffeine, and "drain" lol, the morning weight may be a little lower than expected. But we should still see the overall trend downwards . . .
Last night we got home late after visiting a sick friend in the hospital. We were pretty hungry. But, it was almost 10pm. I went for some pudding wife made with coconut and oats, threw in some grapes and then walked the dogs for 1/2 hour. When I arrived back, I was still hungry. But, before eating more, I chose to step on the scale. It showed that I was 5# over my morning weight. So, I drank some water with vitamin powder added to it and played on the phone instead of eating a sandwich, chips or something.
I haven't weighed in yet this morning. But, I suspect my weight will have remained the same as yesterday's AM weigh-in or dropped slightly. Had I eaten, I'm certain I'd have gained a pound.
