question about my weight loss

Options
So...I've been on here for a week exactly. I started out at 179.9! Now today I am 176.1. Here is my question. Weight fluctuates like 5 lbs throughout a day depending on food, clothing, water retention etc, right? Because on the 7th I weighed 179.9 and then the 8th I was 179.5 the 9th 178.4 and I did not weigh myself on the 10th or 11th. Then on the 12th It said 179.5 again. Then I skipped yesterday and weighed in now at 176.1. SO this fluctuation on monday was most likely a daily fluctuation such as water weight perhaps? I'm just a bit confused because this is the first time I've ever tried to lose weight.

    Yes, your weight fluctuates based on many factors. Weigh yourself once a week at most, unless you want to drive yourself crazy.
