News I lost 8 pounds in 2 days.

[KingOfRome]

Sort of a follow-up to my "I gained 20 pounds in 3 weeks" thread. Over the week after, I gained another 10 or so, and the moon face I got with it made it obvious. Can you imagine how much food I'd have to eat to gain that much weight in body fat? I can, and I know for a fact I wasn't eating nearly that much. So I stopped putting so much salt on my food and took a diuretic for a few days. Lo and behold, rapid weight loss and bye-bye to moon face.

Object lesson on the power of water weight.

In that short a span of time, was probably mostly water weight. But that’s still good, keep going boyo if you’re trying to lose weight.

I know, I'm a disgrace to the bloat god.

I'm actually trying to gain weight. Specifically lean mass; trying to keep fat gains minimal. Though water weight is technically lean mass, it looks very similar to fat and isn't really all that helpful otherwise in excessive amounts. I could feel the blood pressure spike.

Not in and of itself, but if you're having issues with water bloat or high blood pressure, cutting salt is one of the first things you should do.
