You should spend some time reading other posts on this forum. That will help you understand the process you are going through and the experiences you can expect. Pretty sure 90% of newbie's questions and concerns (including the one you just posted) have already been asked and answered dozens, if not hundreds of times.

Take some time and educate yourself before getting upset over all these things that are normal

Don't weigh yourself so frequently! I weigh myself every 2 weeks and as long as the number is less than the last time I was on the scale, that's all that matters! Think how long it took you before to put on 9 pounds, I guarantee you less than a week or two! Be patient & you'll succeed!
