    That's normal. I only weigh myself once a week, same day, and in the morning before I eat, but after the bathroom ;)

    Weight fluctuates from water content, food, etc.

    I had the same frustration but then realized that my long term success is the same as if I had steadily lost 2 lbs a week as planned. I compared my week-to-week 2-lb-loss-goal to my week-to-week actual weight and through all the ups and downs, 3 week stall and sudden drops ... I am one lb. lower than my 2-lb-per week schedule after 4 months of fluctuations.

    Water. Just have to live with it. It all averages out in the end if you're doing your due ...

    Totally normal. If the daily fluctuations bother you, you're not a good candidate for daily weigh-ins. It might be less stressful to cut back to once a week or less.
