Weight Loss/Maintenance
Related: About this forumIs it time to buy a new digital scale if
the numbers don't correspond to your diet and (for lack of a better word) excretion?
First thing this morning, I "gained" one pound. Two trips to the pot and now another two pounds. And this is without clothing or food or drink.
All I had yesterday was a salad with nothing but vegetables and then a turkey Salisbury steak, one beet, and 5 thin asparagus.
I couldn't change the battery because the replacement was low.
Your thoughts?

If you step on the scale once a week or once a month and you're not seeing the corresponding change you are driving toward, then I would question the calibration of the scale.

Weighing daily might make you start to lose any sense of success. Sometimes ignoring numbers without context to one's overall health is the better part of controlling weight.

saw Dr last week, For 6 month checkup, im at 192.
I lived through the big weight loss. I stood on a scale multiple times about day.
Don't do that! I could show ya, how to change, your feet position, and gain, or lose a pound.
And what I'll tell ya, if you constantly step on a scale daily, no, I went from 450 to 192, yes, I had surgery, but the one thing I was taught.
Take your weight , no more than, once a week. Same scale, same time, and, then, look at your weight.
