Someone help me out here! So I’m dieting and have been for a week now and I’ve been losing a pound a day. Yesterday I ate so well, watched my portions, worked out and I actually gained 6 oz over night. 6 oz isn’t that bad but it’s depressing when you just know that you’ll see another pound dropped in the morning and instead of that, you have gained. 😢 why did that happen?! Edit to add: TMI but I used the bathroom before I got into bed so it wasn’t that and I’m not on my period, I just finished with that last week so that’s not it either.

Weight can fluctuate throughout the day by even a few pounds. It’s definitely suggested that you don’t weigh yourself every day because things like this can be discouraging. I would suggest checking no more than once a week. You may have even just eaten something a little saltier than the other days and retained a little extra water. Weight will go up and down and plateau a bunch in every weight loss journey you just want downward progress to be the overall trend. Maybe you were losing water weight mostly the first few days and now are leveling off with that and while you will still progress if doing the right things, it will slow down. A pound a day is a lot to lose.

Everything the person above said and also when we go through our menstrual cycle that has an impact with our weight. Don’t weigh yourself every day it’s just a number. One day you will be at the weight you want no need to rush it ♥️ ♥️♥️♥️

Weight can fluctuate up to 5lbs with water weight. Never weigh yourself more than once a week, always naked and before eating. Try to do it the same time on the same day, like 8am Sunday

U know what’s better then weighing yourself is measuring yourself. U may lose inches wall around your body but not much weight. I suggest doing that instead of weighing yourself

You should only weigh yourself once a week. Same time and day every week. You can go up or down 5 pounds with water weight etc. also you can gain weight from working out. I wanted to tone myself up and have gained 5 pounds of muscle from doing so but my body is smaller.

I dont make a friend in the scale, I am measuring myself. Started a 3 week program and measured in the beginning. I'm on week 3 now then I'll measure again. I did get on the scale once.. down 3lbs but I would rather know I'm losing inches.
