The mad peak on my weight chart below is after a few rest days and piggy pizza night.
Eating big meals, especially restaurant prepared meals. Means epic salt intake. If you're an athlete you'll likely drink loads to compensate, and the salt will help the body retain it. You can easily have an extra kilo knocking around.

I can fluctuate massively day to day because of hydration/dehydration status and, I suspect a bit of water retention from salt binge, maybe, that's just a guess. But give it a day or so and it's even stevens again so I don't worry.

@Sainsburys_Ed
thanks, genuinely, much needed dose of reality.
in reality I suspect some of the weight loss I thought I had made was actually dehydration, and I'm better hydrated this week so rather than being at race weight as I thought I was and making great progress, I've got further to go.
