    Koren I put my kids and husband on the scale all the time to see if it's being accurate!! My body is weird like that too! So because of that, I never weight myself in the morning like they always tell you too. I weigh on Thursday or Friday because those days seem to be my accurate days. I weigh myself everyday, same time having eaten dinner the same time (because a heavy dinner also will effect the number!) for a few weeks and see which day as my "lightest". That what weight watchers taught me. I have days were I just feel swollen! I'll see what I weigh then weigh later and I'm down two pounds. But I only say I've lost if it's an obvious change for me. Even then I'll be up the next week. Body adjusting I think.
    You're doing amazing!!!

    Okay- weirdness abounds!! I weighed again this morning bc, seriously, my legs look a lot thinner. So- as of this morning, I am 296.0 AGAIN!! Somehow between Friday morning & Sunday morning, I lost 2.8 lbs!! The scale is relatively accurate bc I weighed my cockapoo who weighed in at 11.12 at the vet Thursday before last. He was 12 this morning, so the scale is in the ballpark!! The only thing I can think of is I did get all the sleep & fluids I could over the weekend. Otherwise my eating habits were pretty normal!! I'm calling it water weight & moving forward!!

    Last Sunday I weighed again & I was back at 296.0. I've hit the pool twice this week (Monday & Wednesday) so I don't know what is going on- is it water retention from exercise? Building muscle? I dunno. I do know I'm sore the evenings I exercise & the day after. I'll weigh again on Sunday & see what's what. Either way, I'm not stopping the pool & at least it's almost a pound less than last week!!

    I am weighing in today instead of Thursday since I am going on vacation and will not be near a scale until next week. I am very slowly dropping on the scale, but the big winner is the # of inches lost. I have lost 2" overall just in the last two weeks. I believe it has something to do with the heavy weights!!!

    I am hoping to maintain over the next several days. There will be lots of walking but no weights.

    Good luck to everyone!!!

    I think a lot of what I lost was water but since it's probably what I gained, I'm gonna call it a wash! (Yeah, I went there with the pun! 8-P ) I think the water aerobics are paying off besides just being fun. Stay strong & focused everyone!! You got this!!

    Mary definitely hit the nail dead-on!! TOM had a negative effect on the weigh in!! >:-/ Not a happy camper here- I've never weighed in during TOM bc until a couple months ago, I was done with the whole mess!! Grrr!! What is really gratifying is that even though I bounced up, it's still under 300!!! ***Happy dance!! Happy dance!!*** The TOM effect will go away in a few days so I'm irritated but not stressing!! Keep going everyone!! We're making progress!!

    I'm not sure if I'm going to make my CGW, but I'll be close!! Honestly, I'll be stoked to just get out of the 290s!! I know a lot of this drop was just water due to TOM. I don't think I've seen these numbers since 1999!!

    I've been slacking on logging. I'm working a lot, comfort eating more, and losing my will to diet. If I can just get into the 132's I'll be thrilled.
