I might be addicted to the scale

So, I just started MFP about two weeks ago. I love it! However, I'm concerned that I have an addiction to my scale. A couple days ago, I got down to 173.8....which for me, was crazy exciting considering 175 (ish) is where I always seem to plateau. The next couple of days, I stayed strong on my diet, not going over on calories at all, but every morning I woke to another couple of ounces gained. I'm back up to 175, which is still a four pound loss in 2 weeks, but I still feel disappointed. Is it normal to fluctuate this much? Should I stay off of the scale? Any help or encouragement would be appreciated! Thanks!
