It's very frustrating for me to feel like I've had a good day of accurate logging and a high intensity workout and then see my weight go UP the next day. Does that necessarily mean my logging was incorrect? I feel like the mornings I do lose on the scale, my day before wasn't usually any better than usual?

    Nope. Weight loss is not linear.

    "High intensity workouts" = 1 hour of insanity at my YMCA

    nah...just be patient.
    Probably water weight

    I was 175.2
    Yesterday i did some pool excercises and some walking/jogging
    Was up to 178.8

    And today 174.4

    No worries when you log accurate eat in deficit You WILL lose weight. Only be patient :)

    For me the weight changes seem to reflect two or even three days before...so if Saturday I go over my target, but then Sunday I'm under, then on Monday my weight may have gone up or stayed the same, but then on Tuesday it'll have gone down...if I eat well Sunday and Monday it will definitely be reflected by Wednesday.
