Try not weighing yourself everyday, perhaps try every other day or every two days, even once a week. When your body feels under nourished it can hold onto fat, especially in your stomach. Muscle weighs more than fat so depending on the type of exercise, there is a possibility you built muscle tone resulting in your scale not budging. I looked this up below. Good Luck

Your weight can fluctuate 5 or more pounds within a single day or from one day to the next. This fluctuation can be caused by water retention, different clothing, weighing at different times of the day etc… It is very difficult to gain or lose even one pound of fat throughout the course of a day. Gaining and losing fat are slow processes that add up over time. Therefore weighing yourself after a large meal or exercise, with a different scale, or more than once a day is not a good indicator of fat gain or loss.

No - those numbers don't add up, as is.

1 pound of fat = 3500 calories.

In a sedentary day = burn 2000 calories.
& exercise = 350 => you burn 2350 calories.
Food approx 500 calories (Starvation).

Losing a pound means 3500 +500 food means you have to burn 4000 calories & you only burn 2350.

But then I've lost 4 pounds in 1 day once, through fluid loss.

Well you didn't eat much and it wouldn't be surprising that you in fact did lose one pound, but there is also the possibility of you just loosing that one pound because of water weight or the simple fact that we tend to flunctuate in weight from day to day.
