Answer 4

If it is not your scale you could be putting on water (fluid)

are your ankles or legs swelling??

I have seen people put on 100 Lbs with in two weeks. (all water)

if you notice that you are swelling you have to go to see a Doc to find out why you are doing this

while most water retention is not dangerous some times it indicates a serious health problem

it can also be weight you have lost going to the bathroom.

or it could be that you are dehydrating yourself.

I know some people who can lose up to 10 lbs during a workout

we are 98% water

you should weigh yourself in the morning before you eat or drink anything and after you use the toilet.

and only once a week.

everyone weights change from day to day for most people it is a 5 lbs range (depending on what time of month it is)

some people it can  be up to 15 lbs

that is just normal.

Answer 5

I think you need a new scale, and you're weighing yourself way too often.  

but the best time to weight yourself is in the am before food and after a bowel movement.

do it every day for a week to get a basic idea and then once a week under the same circumstances.  

Answer 6

No, there is something wrong with your scale.  5-7 pounds is possible, but not 20.
