From Pounds and Inches...

"After the fourth or fifth day of dieting the daily loss of weight begins to decrease to one pound or
somewhat less per clay, and there is a smaller urinary output. Men often continue to lose regularly
at that rate, but women are more irregular in spite of faultless dieting. There may be no drop at
all for two or three days and then a sudden loss which reestab1ishes the normal average. These
fluctuations are entirely due to variations in the retention and elimination of water, which are more
marked in women than in men.

The weight registered by the scale is determined by two processes not necessarily synchronized
under the influence of HCG fat is being extracted from the cells, in which it is stored in the fatty
tissue. When these cells are empty and therefore serve o purpose the body breaks down the cellular
structure and absorbs it, but breaking up of useless cells, connective tissue, blood vessels, etc., may
lag behind the process of fat-extraction. When this happens the body appears to replace some of the
extracted fat with water which is retained for this purpose. As water is heavier than fat the scales may
show no loss of weight, although sucient fat has actually been consumed to make up for the deficit in
the 500-Calorie diet. When then such tissue is finally broken down, the water is liberated and there
is a sudden flood of urine and a marked loss of weight. This simple interpretation of what is really an
extremely complex mechanism is the one we give those patients who want to know why it is that on
certain days they do not lose, though they have committed no dietary error."

If you haven't read this book, I highly reccomend it!!
