Strange thing going on with weight loss?

Question

alright, recently to get over my weight loss plateau i have been doing core rhythms and some pilates. I started to get a thinner stomach and i got over my plateau. So thats good and all. But since 3 days ago, my stomach looks bigger then it was before. But i have not been gaining weight on purpose. I read online that muscle weighs slightly more than fat, but it says that i gained 2 pounds. i have been stressed out lately because of school. Does stress make you gain weight like that? I have not been stress eating, but i have been eating different foods because some relatives came over and we have been eating high carb and fat foods. But i have not been eating all of that food. I have also been exercising.

Answer 1

Put the scale in the closet and leave it there. Weight can fluctuate 2-5 lbs per day at varying times.

Answer 2

If you are eating any foods that are high in fat they can make you bloat a little, but a 2 pound weight gain is not bad nor is it unhealthy, what is unhealthy is checking your weight every day, weight is supposed to fluctuate between every day.

Answer 3

muscles do weigh more than fat, stop looking at a scale, anyways, just work out, and check your measurements
