TheCurvyJones 721 Posted January 6, 2013 I'm an every day weigher. I need to know the number. It doesn't make me freak out, but a rise of 4lbs overnight has me wondering what I did the day before. I get the vent and I'm not going to pander with advice that I know you won't follow cause I wouldn't either. Things I review are-- did I drink all my Water? Did I hit my Protein goal? Did I eat late, or have something carby after 7pm? Did I have anything salty? Did I...........Go? Did I exercise? If I did everything right and all my answers are satisfactory to me, I shrug it off. It's how our bodies are and if I am going to weigh every day, I get to see this kind of stuff. If I find something that I probably mucked up, let that be a lesson to me to stop or start doing it. Biggest culprit for me is making sure my bowels move and getting in all of my liquids. Don't stress... review. And if you're TRULY doing everything right, let yourself off the hook, give it a few days and you'll see the scale go back down. For me, that number is instant feedback on how I lived life the day before. Sometimes it gives me a clue. Sometimes it's just my body being my body. MOST times, there is something I need to pay more attention to, even if it's just a hint that Mother Nature is about to cop a squat. 1 VitaleEM reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SerendipityHappens 1,594 Posted January 7, 2013 I regularly gain 7 pounds in anticipation of aunt flow. SEVEN POUNDS. Also, I'm not sleeved yet, but I'm on 800 calories a day and I lost a lot of weight rapidly, then gained back a few pounds and then stalled for two weeks and I HAVEN'T been cheating on my diet.. The scale finally started moving again and I lost the pounds I gained plus another one. I've read through these forums I KNOW that stalls happen I know that it's normal.. but it's something that is supposed to happen to OTHER PEOPLE.. NOT TO ME!
