    Because weight loss isn't linear and you probably had more sodium before weigh in or it's that TOM or you didn't weigh yourself with the same circumstances as the prior weeks or the moon was in retrograde. Congrats on the weight loss so far and have some patience. :)

    I agree with Glassy, also this is all about the long run. over the time I've been eating healthy my weight fluctuates - sometimes I'll put on a lb. or two, then it comes off again. tbh I know why as I keep logging and I weigh myself once, and only once, a week on the same day and time. Don't get disheartened - we all hit plateau's it's all part of it.

    I agree with the other 2. Don't panic. the first few weeks tend to be amazing, cos you lose a lot of water. give it another few weeks and it'll start to move again. weigh in the morning, in your underwear or less, after a potty break. well done so far. x

    Could be -

    TOM if you're female
    Water weight
    Other hormonal changes

    Fluctuations are normal! Weight loss isn't a straight downward line.
