Watch those food lables though cause even if you don't add salt it still is in your food! Keep in mind your period will make you retain water too. From yesterday alone I am 3 lbs lighter, and that is all water weight!
I weigh myself every morning after I pee (or if you do the dooooody in the morning weigh after that). Don't weigh yourself during the day or you will have all the excess food and water on that scale too.
Women period soak up water, it sucks no doubt! Do some googling on water retention and there are a few good articles. Keep with it though it will take time. Remember it takes a 3500 calorie deficit to loose 1 lb. So if you are eating/exercising 500 less calories than you need to maintain per day, in one week you should loose one pound...again just remember your water weight fluxuates more than that so don't let it get you down!
