    What has really helped me is the happy scale app. You can input your weight as often as you like, but it only shows your average eight, weight loss and gives you achievable goals based on your loss.
    Also, bear in mind that one pound is about 450grams. Most meals physically weigh more than this amount, even if the caloric content is low, your body will physically be heavier while it contains added weight from food and drink.
    I'd reccomend just weighing in the morning when you're at your lowest, and try to see the long game. Fluctuations of 2/3/4 pounds a day mean nothing when in a few months you could have lost 10pounds!
    Good luck :smile:

    I've "gained" 9lbs in one day before..but I'm assuming it was like a few pounds of food and close to a gallon of water.
    Just keep at it =)
