Weight loss during exams

Any of you in college or that have taken final exams notice pretty big weight loss during this time?

For the past week, I haven't been eating my usual bulking diet because I've been pressed for time, but I was still eating what seemed like at least maintainance amount of calories, and after I finished, I stepped on a scale and noticed that my weight had gone down about 2 lbs, in a span of less than a week. I feel like I regressed big time this week since I had put on about 6-7 lbs since I started bulking up.

2lbs is nothing. that could be water weight.

exams = stress = weight loss

It also depends on the person. My university exams, I don't give a crap really. I just walk in with I know and with I studied.

I have long lost the nervousness/stress of exams due to failing so much in high school Lol.

wow, tell me about it man. Between caffeine binges and stress I always lose a significant amount of weight during finals. I can literally look in the mirror after a shower and see myself shrink lol.
