Distinguishing Between Water & Fat

When on a cycle, how can you tell whether or not you have gained fat or are holding excess water? Do skinfold calipers read higher when holding water as well? I am a little confused as to how to tell if I am holding water, or fat.
 
Hydrostatic weighing would probably be the only way to tell for sure.

Calipers will be thrown off a little if you are bloated. You can judge by how fast you gained it. It takes time to put on noticeable fat, it won't happen in a few days. If you gain 10lbs in the 1st week of a cycle, it's water.

You could run an anti-e & see if you lose the water.
