    Depends on the situation. I have fluxed up to 10 pounds around TOM. When my ankles are puffy I don't get on the scale. No need to drive myself crazier than I already am!

    I go up to 6 sometimes. But that's only if I eat a really salty meal for dinner and then weigh the next morning. Typically every single week I fluctuate 2-4 pounds. That's why I weigh in once per week. I have discovered which days I tend to hold onto water and under what conditions. I weigh in on Thursdays ONLY if I have not eaten a ridiculous amount of salt AND if I have not had any alcohol in a few days, as that definitely affects the number on the scale!
