The full moon and weight?

Okay ... I know what y'all are gonna say. But Whatever. I do it and lots of ya do too! I weigh myself daily. I usually loose a pound a week. During that 7 day week I will usually see a day where I see a lower weight than the rest of the week. I call it my "preview weight"! LOL! I usually will hit that lower weight the next week. I also like to record a weight once I see it 2 days in a row. Well ... this week has been crazy weight wise. I did not gain ... but I have lost a pound a day for the last few days! Like Sunday I was 164, Monday I was 163, Tuesday I was 162 and today I'm 161. *sigh* Which weight is right?? I was fully expecting to see my weight at 163 this week. I'd LOVE to truly be 161 though! LOL! I told my husband this and he said it may be crazy due to the full moon. Now ... I did not see this in the previous full moon cycle! Why would I see this during this full moon cycle?

What are your thoughts on this? I have not really had a big change in my activity or calories consumed or calories burned. Today is weigh in day for my challenge and I was hoping to not see a new number on the scale! Hahaha! I know most would LOVE to have this problem, but I'm confused and skeptical!

I used to weigh everyday - I would actuall chart it on a spreadsheet and then go back and look at my weekly averages. The body fluctuates due to what it's doing. Remember that muscle weighs more than fat... but I found it (eventually) to be entertaining and realized my body was going to fluctuate 5 # up and down all week long and would compare my weekly averages and if I saw it drop then I was happy. But this is why they tell us to pick one day for a weigh - in and not weigh daily. :flowerforyou:

Does it matter?? All I can see is the scale going down and that's what counts in the long run!

I only show my husband my full moon . . .

Weight has to do with gravity. Maybe the fluctuating weight has to do with the gravity force from the full moon.
