By "took", did you mean leave one in the bowl or pick one up and put it in your pocket?

The former would mean your scale's readings are fluctuating, the latter means you picked up a 1 pound poop and put it in your pocket.

I am betting on the former. :)

Your weight was probably right between two weights when you measure it. Any little thing can cause the reading to fluctuate. Such as wash your face with Water. Take a Vitamin. Or even the way you step up on the scale. Generally I use a scale that provides readings in 0.2 pound increments. It is repeatable. If it is not repeatable then get rid of it and get a better one. Also check your batteries if its electronic.

http://www.amazon.com/My-Weigh-XL-550-Talking-Bathroom/dp/B0014ZQH84 I've been using this one for over a year and it has always been extremely accurate. Plus, you can set it to tell you your weight out loud, which is fun. When it turns on and says "hello!" I said hi back to it. XD But yeah, very accurate, very durable.

Water retention? Especially after eating junk, I can add 5 lbs. when eating 1 lb. of crap.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
