in Health and Weight Loss
I know that sometimes the scale will go up, down and even stay the same. I weigh myself 1x a week and this week the scale stayed the same. (I might have lost 1lb if you dont count my shoes). I will admit to that my food choices were not the best this past week (ex: Burger King) My question is, is it true that while i didnt lose (or gain, YAY!) this week, will it even out? Meaning next week I may lose 3lbs or maybe nothing but the next week lose and it sort of catches up? I hope that makes sense.

ETA: i know waist, etc measurements can show loss, im just asking about the scale ;)

    My experience is that the weight fell off in "chunks" rather than on command each week or day when I weighed in... and maintaining the same weight is a victory !

    Hang in there! It is worth the daily discipline!

    As I get closer to my goal I notice the same thing. I will stay within 1 pound of a certain weight for a week or two then suddenly drop 4 or 5 pounds all at once.
