I exercise and stay under my calorie goal but my weight still fluctuates. One day I'm 182 then 185. This is my struggle. Am I doing something wrong? Any ideas?

There are some really good posts stuck to the top of each forum section in the "must reads" posts. This one in particular might be useful: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10084670/it-is-unlikely-that-you-will-lose-weight-consistently-i-e-weight-loss-is-not-linear/p10

You are totally normal.0

My weight is up and down most weeks. I have pledged to only weigh myself once a week.0

Fluctuating daily is normal, it's how bodies work. You've gotta watch the trend.0

fluctuations are perfectly normal....but you should be seeing a downward trend overall over a period of weeks. If not you need to check you are being accurate enough with your food logging as you may be eating more than you think.0

I use an app called Libra that shows the trend, so I can see what fluctuations actually mean.0
