2lb loss!
Frankly I'm stunned.
I was expecting to be withing half a pound either side of where I was last week, so a 2lb loss is quite surprising.
Hmmm...
There is an explanation that's just leapt to mind, although I don't like it much and I don't know enough about these matters to be sure.
I wonder whether the loss is more to do with muscle mass than fat. Quite simply with the increased tiredness, my activity levels have really dropped off.
We know that unless you are exercising, you tend to lose muscle before fat, and that muscle weighs more than fat.
According to my scales (although they were not expensive ones, so I can't say I completely trust them), my body fat percentage is slightly higher now than it was a few weeks ago when I was slightly heavier.
It's a theory. Unfortunately I have no idea how good a one it is. If anyone has a better understanding of these things please let me know.
Statistical Significance: I am at my lightest now since I began.
Starting Weight: 19st 9lb - 275lbs
Current Weight: 12st 6lb - 174lbs
Body fat: 23.2%
