Did you ever test exercise? Just yesterday, before my workout (squats and bench press, no cardio), I weighed 202. Just after my workout, I weighed 200.

I've seen myself lose up to 5lbs before and after a workout.

Yes, I weighed myself before and after exercising multiple times, and there was a slight shift, but a glass or two of water evened the weight back out immediately. So, I would chalk that up to simple water loss. (like you and other have as well)
