Maybe: It is not uncommon for weight to fluctuate by a few pounds. This can be caused by variation in the amount of water weight you are carrying. Weight can also change based on bowel movement patterns, etc. The first thing i would do is take your weight every day, at the same time of the day with your clothes off. Make sure you have an accurate scale too.
