I would encourage you to check out a weight trending resource like HappyScale. I use TrendWeight because I like the graphics. You need a Fitbit account to enter data. I also use WeightGrapher. You enter your data there. One thing I like about that site is it also has a trend line for your weight a month ago.
What all of these do is take a series of weigh-ins to give a more realistic number that kicks out the random (or not so random) fluctuations that happen for many reasons day-to-day. They use an algorithm that's slightly more complex than just an arithmetic average; they use a weighted moving average. They recognize that your weight today is more indicatave of your true weight than your weight ten days ago, but that number from ten days ago is still important. Your weight yesterday was a little less weighted than today, but still more than ten days ago.
If you can IGNORE the day-to-day readings and focus on the TREND, you'll be better informed, and you might be happier. If you're curious to read more about this, check out The Hackers' Diet, especially the part about signal and noise.
A personal example from Weight Grapher is my last three months:
Note the crazy fluctuations? Yeah. The two-week, four-week, and three-month graphs also give you a projection of where your weight will likely go based on where it's been. This has helped me when my scale has been up one or two days in a row, but my trend is still losing. Check it out.

Ultimate Goal Weight: Healthy.
I am doing a lot of weight lifting so I know I’ll be gaining muscle mass. I don’t want that number on the scale to deter me from how I feel/look. NSV (non scale victories) are just as important.

Notes:
Jun 22- My scale often gives me readings that fluctuate 2lbs within seconds of weigh-ins. I take the lower weight reading. But still makes me wonder how accurate my weight is on this flip flopping scale. Anyways, I changed it up a little this past week and ate a bit more (also broke my fasting time in order to fit in the additional calories and work with my activities). Overall, I guess things are on the right track, but I'm feeling a bit worn out by the constant monitoring and negotiating. In some ways, I'm more food obsessed now than before.
Jun 15- Always thrilled to see progress. But I also think I am tracking the calories incorrectly and could be under-eating. May get that food scale and explore zigzag diet/refeeding so as not to mess up the metabolism. Anyone have experience with that?
Jun 8-First time posting on MFP!
My weight loss journey started 14 months ago, resulting in a loss of 60lbs. During the quarantine, I upped my physical activity and started intermittent fasting. While still eating clean, I was not tracking total consumed calories because I've always been adverse to calorie/food tracking and wanted to just be "intuitive" about my eating. But these past few weeks, it was immensely discouraging to see no weight loss despite all the hard work I've been putting myself through. Anyways, I've decided to change it up for June, joined MFP, and have start tracking those damn calories for the first time ever.
Lo and behold, after the first week of tracking, the scale finally budged: -4lbs. So, groan, what everyone has always been saying is true: track your food. I still want to resist, but I'm committing for June.3 -

I thought surely I’d have a big gain this week. It was a tough week and I overindulged with some stress eating. So I’m really encouraged to see that the scale actually went down a little. Stay the course!!!6 -
@msapplek I also used to be wary of tracking calories. When my mother tracked calories in the 1980’s, it looked like tedious process, and she always seemed like she was miserable and starving. So I thought that calorie counting = tedious, unpleasant restriction.
But I was mistaken! It’s actually quite freeing... weight loss is simply math. If we eat fewer calories than we burn, we lose weight. And we don’t have to go starving ourselves or feeling hungry!
I don’t know anything about zig-zag/refeeds but the phrase “mess up the metabolism” raises a red flag for me... I’m pretty sure we aren’t going to “mess up our metabolism” via any certain diet. However under-eating is very very unhealthy. There’s a lot of info on these kinds of things in the forums and the stickies here on MFP— very helpful, educational stuff.
You are doing fabulously!!! Congrats!!!1 -
This week was SO frustrating. My weight just seems stalled right now, after spiking up for a week. I understand these things have to be seen with a long view. But it's still frustrating to be doing all the work and seeing reverse effects. Hormones? The moon? Stress? Who knows? I am just doing to try to keep on track, and hope to continue improving my general health.
