Dropped about 9 lbs while running Reta, but once things changed up, the weight came back quick mostly water/glycogen ??

Mostly water and glycogen rebounding fast

Normal rebound not instant fat gain

Glycogen refill equals quick scale gain

Water weight returns before real fat

Calories decide fat, carbs decide water

Early losses are mostly water weight

True fat loss takes sustained deficits

Nine pounds wasn’t all fat anyway

Hydration and glycogen explain quick rebound

Fat loss slower than scale changes

Calories decide fat carbs decide water

Early drops rarely pure body fat

Temporary rebound common after deficit shifts

User tolerance varies; same gear feels different sometimes.
