Some people feel confused as a result of the change in body weight on the scale throughout the day, which happens due to a group of different factors, which require continuous follow-up with the specialist doctor.
In the following lines, the “Consulto” reviews the reasons for the change in body weight during the day, according to the website “Webmd”.
1- body weight method
The wrong measurement may cause different results to appear during the day, so it is preferable to place the scale on a flat, hard surface, taking into account standing straight with your feet on the scale, wearing light clothes, and then the real results of body weight will appear.

2- Suffering from some diseases
Infection with some diseases may affect body weight, most notably cancer, diabetes, title failure, and colds, as these cases lead to loss of appetite or body water retention, which causes weight disorders, so a doctor should be consulted in this case.
3- Taking certain medications
Some medications, including anti-inflammatories, antihistamines, insulin, antidepressants, and anti-epileptics, can cause rapid weight loss or gain, so it is best to consult your doctor for all side effects before starting to take medications.

4- Drink plenty of water
Water weighs a percentage in the body, especially when consumed without movement or lack of exercise, and therefore this appears immediately after measuring the weight, however, it is preferable to drink water instead of sugary drinks, to avoid getting extra calories, while making sure to exercise.
5- Drink coffee
Studies have proven that caffeine is an ideal food to reduce appetite and burn calories, but the drink itself is high in calories and fat, and can cause body weight disorder when measured, so you should stay away from excessive coffee.
