    Weight up to 156 this morning. Was 152 yesterday. I know mostly water, but mentally you know that number on the scale really wrecks my day. Trying not to go crazy and make myself fix it by restricting and over exercising. Stay sane.

    6:15 AM: 145 (-1.9 based on Happy Scale's expected weight)

    Goal for next week: 144.7

    Setting a small goal for next week because Koffie's birthday is on Friday and I'll likely have a massive binge. Also having a doughnut day at internship on Tuesday. I'm hoping I can lose regardless but I need to try hard not to overcompensate on other days. There's a good chance I gain this week, but will try to achieve this small goal.

    7:30 AM: 145.6 (+0.6 based on Happy Scales expected weight, real weight was 154.2)

    Goal for next week: 145.5

    I lost this week and then gained towards the end which undid everything plus more. I'm setting a tiny goal because I know my expected weight will keep climbing until I stabilize and start losing again. I doubt I'll lose this week, but will see. I binged a lot last week so I'm hoping that's done with this week. Hard to know if I'm in a new bingeing cycle already or of it was anticipatory bingeing because of koffies birthday yesterday.

    160.9 Two bad binge days but I'm done with school now so hopefully that will alleviate some stress. It's absolutely terrifying how much my weight fluctuates. I was over 170 and under 160 within three days.

    I regularly fluctuate dramatically like that and it's pretty horrifying. I hope that being done with school helps!

    I sort of weighed in yesterday. I weighed myself after eating and doing yard work and I was at 198.5 which is good that I am staying under the 200 pound mark. i just need to take a real weight soon.

    Up 2.3 "expected weight" although actual weight is a lot higher. This week there's no way I can set a goal. I'm back in a bingeing cycle and my family is coming to visit. My goal will be to not engage in anticipatory bingeing or post meal binges. I will try to maintain my weight and be more active. I'm going to see if I can lose but it's unlikely. This week I had a few big binge days and a couple smaller ones, and a couple restricting days. I'm gonna shoot to consistently eat more calories this week and see if it helps reduce bingeing. I don't have much to lose, considering how swollen I am. Graduation is on Monday so my main goal is to not binge until then for now.

    Up 10.8 pounds since last Sunday. I'm not happy about it, but it also could have been much worse. That was mostly a result of consistent overeating but I didn't binge a ton. This week I need to stabilize, then hopefully lose next week. I feel disgusting and don't fit into anything and am really swollen and puffy.

    It's seriously the worst. I'm pissed because I didn't even binge that much, I just consistently overate so I guess I was expecting the damage to be less than it was. My weight hasn't been this high in about a year and I feel like it's just gonna keep doing up. I'm so glad my family is gone and hopefully now I can get a hold of myself, but I don't know. I hate it.

    Last week the scale went up for the first time since I started MFP. I had gotten as low as 218, but then it went back up to 220. I am seriously discouraged, and I'm afraid to weigh myself this week.

    It might be good to avoid weighing for a while. Chances are it's just water weight. But if feeling discouraged may trigger you to binge then it might be best to avoid the scale.

    Yeah, I have definitely considered falling off the wagon because it's like, why bother if the scale is just going to go up? I have to keep reminding myself this is the first time this has happened, and it's NORMAL to have weight fluctuations. But dang, the desire to give up is strong.

    I got down to 156 but I ate a whole box of cereal last night and I'm up to 159.2. Idk I'm glad it was "only" a box of cereal but it took forever for me to lose that weight. I'm hoping to be below 155 by the end of the month, which still may be possible if this is just water weight.

    You can both do it! Respective kitty, have you ever considered downloading a trend weight app like libra or happy scale? I feel like it helps normalize those fluctuations and has made it so I'm less hard on myself.

    Ok, i just keep gaining. yes, i think I should avoid the scale. But seriously 15 lbs???? I doubt it is all just water weight. It is so disappointing. I lost so nicely and now just keep piling on.

    I agree, it's not all water weight. But most of it is! You can do this!

    Up 0.6 since last Saturday, not too bad. I binged pretty badly last Saturday and Sunday then restricted the rest of the week. I know my body was still catching up and stabilized from the week priors rapid gain. Not setting goals for next week. Starting treatment tomorrow and imagine not weighing myself will be one of the first habits I need to work on breaking.
