Hey all! Was just wondering how to get past the few pounds of water weight I keep losing and gaining? Can't seem to get past a 2-week stretch... Any suggestions???

    Double check your calories and deficit and drink more water.

    since your diary is closed it's hard to say....

    do you use a food scale to weigh solids? measure liquids? log accurately and consistently? which means everything using correct entries?

    "The evidence presented in this study indicates that even very high and unrealistic levels of metabolic adaptation do not affect
    the timing of weight plateaus. Rather, the seemingly innocuous intermittent loss of dietary adherence results in weight graphs
    with 6-mo plateaus, and these results point to the sensitivity of dietary adherence in determining the kinetics of weight loss."

    From: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2570111/Am J Clin Nutr-2014-Thomas-ajcn.113.079822.pdf

    Basically, you're probably lacking dietary adherence to your calorie goals. Just buckle down, ensure your accuracy in both your intake and output is as tight as possible.
