Weight shifts in the short term are based on gain or loss of water. Different types of food/salt intake and other factors can add to this variation. If the loss continued by a pound or more daily I would go to your doc. If it bounces up & down around a common point I would ignore it.

The change in weight you described is likely due to change in your hydration status. Depending on how tall you are, you may be overweight. Visit this site to determine if you need to work on losing weight: BMI calculator: https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/educational/lose_wt/BMI/bmicalc.htm
