Does anyone have that problem that their weight fluctuates and u gain a pound in a week and lose it the next week

DancingMoosie

Yes, it happens, for various reasons. If you are exercising, your muscles might be holding on to water to repair themselves. Or, if you ate a lot of sodium, you will have water retention. That time of the month. Maybe you are constipated. It is not usually a pound of fat playing tag with the scale.

It's not a problem, it's normal. Body weight naturally fluctuates. For some people the weight can go up or down as much as 5lbs. Track your maintenance over several months - it should all even out..

Yes, it's normal. Don't obsess over it. It's normal for the human body to do that.

Yes. Usually it's durning that awful TOM.

The human body is something like over 60% water so yes body weight will flux & is perfectly normal.

Sometime all it takes is a tall glass of water to add a pound or two ... especially around the menstrual cycle. That is why it is important to always weight at the same time of day, same frequency, & same clothing (or lack their of).

Some people will flux 1-2 lbs while others will flux 2-5 lbs so depending on your normal flux range definitely make a mental note of what is beyond your personal flux range in order to differentiate between normal flux and actual wt gain.

Regardless in your case I don't think its anything to fret over in maintaining phase.

Absolutely!! and its completely normal, its a matter of getting to know your body and how your fluctuations happen. I fluctuate by 2lbs in any week depending on what foods I've eaten, TOM or toilet issues!
