Gaining weight on calorie deficit

36/F who loves dessert, happy hour, and exercises 45 mins a day at least 3x a week. I bought one of those scales that tells you your body fat percentage and water, etc. just because I am so confused.

I was three pounds away from my goal weight, after a bad cold. During this time, I didn’t eat sugar or alcohol (I eat cake and drink wine every day). I also wasn’t hungry, so just ate cabbage soup and a bite of bread to sustain myself.

I felt awesome. I felt lighter and faster, I wasn’t bloated and I had more energy and could think clearly at work. So I tried to maintain this with calorie deficit and have gained even more than I weighed before.

Do I really need to starve myself to feel “good”? I would resign myself to the “this is probably just the weight my body wants to be” besides the fact that I felt amazing when I was at my leanest.
