Question:

is it possible to gain 4 pounds in 2 days or is this water weight?

i have been trying to lose 5 pounds (from 125 to 120) and I eat healthier and excersise moreAnyways I lost a couple and i was down to 123 thursdayNow it's almost sunday and I checked the scale and it was 127! I don't understand, i feel a bit bloated but I haven't weighed this much in months, and I've been watching what I eat and excersising(cardio)I know you're not supposed to weight yourself at night but still seems like a lot to gain in 2 days.if it's water weight how do I get rid of it? (I drink water regularly )

Answer:

If you aren't riding him and working him hard, there is no reason to keep his caloric intake high Anytime we give horses much more than what they evolved to eat - grass-we run risksIn your place, with a threatening laminitis, I'd not be giving him anything but a grass hay, until I had a vet out to do a bilateral radiographic study of his feetThe last thing you want is that coffin bone to fully rotate and drop thru his sole.
I wouldn't be giving him anything except grass or grass hay until the vet checks your horse.
