Question about "fast" weight loss..

So I've been counting calories, cutting soda, being somewhat a bit more active, and sticking to 1200 calories or less (because it works for me as I'm generally satisfied consuming that) and it has led to rapid weight loss. So you have a clue, I lost 7 lbs in the last week alone. I'm a big guy, so I understand 1200 calories and the change in lifestyle and nutrition is boosting weight loss, but from time to time I hear ignorants who even though I am right now almost 35 lbs lighter than I was less than 2 months ago, will tell me "oh, don't get your hopes up, that is water weight." I tend to shrug it off, but it got me thinking.

Every time I weigh myself I readjust my calorie/nutrient goals in MFP, so that I have updated and accurate info, but I wanted to know: let's say someone loses 15 pounds of "water weight", and after readjusting MFP you stick to your calorie goal, will you continue losing weight, or will it not matter because that weight was water weight to begin with?

Hope I got the idea through, I didn't quite know how to put in words what I am trying to ask lol
