I just wanted to offer some hard data on weight fluctuations. So many new users get discouraged by variations in weight from day to day. Below is my weight for every day of 2019. As you can see there are many ups and downs, day to day. That's how it will be. Some days you'll be up, and some down. What's more important is the trend. As you can see I gained weight solidly from January until July. Then the trend goes towards losing from July until Mid October.
Don't get discouraged by the day to day fluctuations, focus on the future. Work hard, eat right, drink water and don't fall for the woo/hype.
Good luck newbies, you can do it. Remember that losing weight is SIMPLE, but it isn't EASY!

You got it Reb. There are a ton of obstacles that stand in our way sometimes, many that don't have anything to do with food or exercise. Life doesn't stop for us. You can do it, go get after it.0
