You cant lose muscle/fat that fast. It was definately water loss. A combination of the alcohol and not drinking enough water.

ummm could it be the 2 meals that you ONLY had...
bro, if you are training everyday, doing everyday things and only eating 2 meals per day. i've got news for you your body isn't taking just water, it's taking fuel such as any carbohydrates, protein, calories, and oh i almost forgot vitamins and minerals. hit the books somemore.

I can't even believe this thread is longer than one post.
It's WATER. You don't lose muscle or fat (in anything more than negligible quantities) in a single day. On the other hand, it's easy to lose water weight. It's why unknowledgeable fat asses love the first couple of days of Atkins. They lose 8-10 lbs and think they've struck gold. 4lbs isn't much weight fluctuation at all after a poor day's worth of eating.

bigwheel, i was responding to what sprinter was saying, sorry. when i diet itry to keep something within arms reach always. sush as meal replacement packs in the car or say if you know you're goin to be gone most of the day take something of the sort with you. it's better than nothing.
It also depends what time of the day you weigh yourself? For instance, you weigh the least when you wake up and the most when you go to bed. There are so many different factors here. Shoes, or no shoes, is it the same scale, clothes weigh the same as the day before. I wouldn't sweat this at all dude.
Anyways, it's not that bad to have an off or cheat day. Stop being paranoid broham!!!!

Exactly. Trust the mirror, not the scale.
hehe dont forget the most likely scenario, you pooped out a certain amount but simply failed to replace it, the average male colon is 3.5 feet long and holds roughly 5 pounds of fecal matter when full, the small bowel can hold almost as much, much longer but quite thin and used for absorption. the colons secondary role is water storage, the body pulls right from the descending colon when dehydrated(thats why your poop gets so hard). in your case, i speculate you had normal bm's to empty the colon but just didnt put as much food back. i never knew that gastro rotation i had back in med school would be so handy, but there you go.
lol are you being sarcastic? no really, do you go 5x per day? bro thats alot of pooping. its funny, but just for $hits and giggles take a day and fast, no water or food, if you have a "normal" day you can drop 5 pounds easy, get a sweat going and clean out the bowels and 10 is not too tough. thats scary, when we are spending 10 weeks trying to put on 20 pounds!
