    That scale was a total bummer. Up down down. Up Up Down Down. Now its all down from here.

    Weight loss is not linear. Some weeks you do everything right but maintain, or even gain. Others you lose a whole lot in a "whoosh."

    So please don't panic when (not if) the scale goes up. Just keep up the great work, and look for a downward trend. Take measurements and progress photos, too. They'll show you the truth when the scale is being a lying liar who lies.

    Thanks everyone. That scale was a total bummer. Up down down. Up Up Down Down. Now its all down from here.

    First of all, congrats on takign the advice and applying it to your life! You will do well.

    I have to address the bolded, though. Many things will cause you to gain water weight and sometimes that water weight will stick around (I personally skip weigh-ins the week before my period for this reason). Just come to an understanding of how the things you do affect your body (extra carbs or sodium, different exercise, not enough water) and the scale will stop being a total bummer!
