Weight Up and Down
I've been trying to lose weight and follow an eating plan. I don't want to get into the specifics because everyone has their own idea and I don't want to get into that debate.
The thing I find odd is how much my weight can vary day to day. I weigh myself every day around the same time. Again, I know you're not supposed to weigh yourself everyday and again, I don't want to get into that discussion either.
So here's the thing. I started out at around 217. I followed my plan fairly strictly and got down to 203. Then I had a guest for a week and a couple of special events where i was eating out and eating things that I usually stay away from. My weight went back up about 209.
So I got back on my plan and my weight began to steadily go back down. I got down to 204.5 which was great until I got on the scale the next day and I was 209. So I fasted for a day and my weight began going down again. It went 209-208-206.5 205.5-204.5 and just when I think I'm doing great, I get on the scale this morning and it's 209 again. I weighed myself several times and it's 209.
Has anyone who has tried to lose weight ever had anything like this happen to them?
