I need to transition from eating like a distance runner to eating like a weight lifter.

I like the daily weighing for just that reason. I can live with the ups and downs but it's nice to know when the jumps are artificial. I'm like you this week, dropped 2.2 pounds in 24 hours. So I know it was water.
I did know it was water and drank more yesterday to specifically see if I could get rid of it. Vain person that I am, my weekly weigh-ins are Sunday and I wanted to get rid of the water. Although it did make me realise that as the weather warmed up, and I was outside more, that I should be drinking more than I usually do.
If nothing else I feel better with the bloat gone - no sleep marks that take too long to fade. Hope you're feeling better as well.
