How much does your weight fluctuate from day to day, or even week to week? If it goes up a few pounds do you worry? Should I worry when it's 3-5 pounds of a difference?

    Weight loss is about trends, which you should only adjust if your weight consistently increase over 4 to 6 weeks. I can fluctuate up to 10 lbs depending on food.

    Ahh, good to know, thank you. It has only been two weeks and 4 lbs of a difference so I will give it more time and keep going!

    My weight jumps up and down daily between 1-4lbs. Depends on how much water I'm retaining and such, but the overal trajectory of my weight line is down and that's all that matters
