Good luck to everyone as we enter month 2 and thank you for your shares and @Cheery83 - hope you had a fun birthday!

I officially do not understand my body. I just don't get it. While I'm thrilled with a dip on my 31Oct reading, I'm confused too. Very confused.

10/30-183.0-(Trend Weight: 185.2)- One dinner out this week set me back but I’ve recovered. Today I am at my lowest weight since 2018. I know I have a long way to go yet but I’m proud that I am overcoming so much. The greatest part is that my morning fasting numbers for my diabetes are improving tremendously. That alone helps a lot in the weight loss because of the physiology of Type 2 Diabetes. But it works both ways. My numbers going up makes losing weight almost impossible physically so I need to keep that in mind going forward. The closer I get to goal, the better my glucose is running. I am getting healthier!
10/31-181.4-(Trend Weight: 184.9)- I've exceeded my goal for October and for that I am very grateful.

Weight loss is not linear. It's not just youI find it helps to focus on consistency in my behavior (eating right, exercising & taking time to recover, getting enough water & sleep, reducing stress). When I'm doing everything I can to make progress, progress will come. It will never be a straight line, but it'll happen in time. Don't get hung up on the numbers you see on the scale.

Looks like you were holding onto some water weight. I have seen dips of 3-4lbs in a day for me, and women are more prone to holding onto water. I'd just make sure you're drinking a lot of water, and not going too far over your sodium limit. But great job overall!2 -
