By replenishing your body fluids, some of the weight will return. Care should always be taken to stay hydrated - best to use sports drinks like gatorade and powerade, specifically designed to replace lost nutrients and electrolytes.
Sauna devices are used to sweat out every drop of water before a fight just to make the weight. I personally wouldn't recommend anyone other than a professional athlete to use something like a sauna suit.
