    I used to have an app that took your morning afternoon and evening weight to give you your trend weight.
    I kept it for a week, it made me neurotic.
    I am an every morning weigher, and sometimes I will weigh before bed but not always. It's usually after what I consider to be a "bad" day. The change is usually 2-4lbs.

    I knew that the time of day I weighed myself made a difference, along with water consumption, etc. but I only recently realized that my weight actually drops an average of 5-8 pounds every night, and then I gain it back during the day, every day.

    I assume I'm not a freak of nature, and this happens to other people, too. I wish I'd known it earlier. ("And that's why I'm bothering telling you so.")

    How much does your weight fluctuate during the day?

    Same as you. My wife, maybe half a pound. As long as your ending up where you want on a longer time frame it's good.

    1-2 pounds.

    Alcohol dehydrates me, so if I drink the night before I see a 2-4 pounds drop.

    I weigh myself just before bed and first thing in the AM.
    It's always around 3 pounds.
