Skeptical?
I am going to reference the great Lyle McDonald. The importance to understand the "whoosh" effect, being it can be mastered in the low body fat %, visual, calipered, and scaled. Remember, science is all theory, the fallacy to believe that anything is factual can leave you misinformed, so take this as the article it merely is.
Whooshing
It is theorized that fat cells may have emptied triglyceride stores which fill with water, causing no visual or scaled weight loss due to water retention.
The effect: After days of impeccable dieting and cardio you see nothing and the scale may be heavier?! You go out have a few drinks with your friends, wake up the next morning, BAM down 5-10lbs and look awesome in the mirror.
Crazy? No. Water retention weight gain has been noted with bioelectrical impedance; weight loss in subjects expending more calories than intake have seen this nonlinear pattern of weight loss...
Suggestion
If you are not seeing results, yet positive the caloric expenditure is on track, keep going. Don't be discouraged. It is likely water retention may be playing a role, in that case try reading this post: Water Retention.
On that Note I leave you with this:
I don't care who you are, now that's funny!#
