Liquid Weight

As I have posted recently I had a weight gain over the Halloween Trick or Treating season. I thought mostly because I had snacked on too much candy. Well I went back to strict protein shakes and dinner with no extras...that included no Coke Zero or water. And guess what? Within a day or so I had dropped several pounds. Which makes me believe I was carrying too much liquid. Water weight. Makes me feel better knowing that I didn't gain real weight but was just drinking too many liquids.
