Before you guys answer, go on and try reducing 3lbs in 1 week. You'd be disappointed. It's really, really difficult to reduce weight.

Once in awhile, get outside in fresh air, take a deep breath & with a deep sigh, let out all the things that's bottled up inside you & be free, & you'll get a glimpse of nirvana.

That is not true. You can lose 3 lbs in a day. In boxing the're not actually loosing weight, as much as they are cutting weight. For several days before the weigh-in, fighters stop taking in sodium, accordingly, they do not retain water weight. Thus, they can "safely" drop between 10 and 15 pounds for the weigh in. Although, like I said, it is not actual weight, only water weight. So when they drink water or resume salt intake, they will quickly reabsorb the weight back.
That is why you see fighters gaining upwards of 20lbs after the weighin
You can even test it yourself.
Look at the sodium intake of everything you eat, and dont eat any salt for a day. You will momentarily lose 5lbs.
yea losing 3lbs isn't that hard at all. It can be easily done in a day. I range from 157-165lbs. our weight actually change everyday, nobody maintains an exact weight for a whole week. I know so cause I have a digital weight scale. Everyday I shower, I curiously look how much i weight that day. I notice if I'm above 162 Im more grumpy but if Im below 162 but above 157 Im in a happy mood.
I sometimes weight myself in the mourning, I could be 165 but then after a hard day at work I could be down to 157lbs. thats 8lbs in less than 24 hours. Ofcourse im tired and hungry and as soon as I have dinner and wake up the next day I could weigh in at 165 again.
