Last time I checked I was 239.3 morning and then 241.1 at night.... so just confused what weight people putting on scale chart ;p

It seems my scales is kinda acurate cause when I was at doctor office it was only off like .6 pounds but that could have been my clothes...lol I wear gym clothes to doctor office ;p

Sadly enough... we do gain throughout the day mostly due to water retention. That is why it is recommended you do it in the morning each day. I am always 1...1-1/2 lbs different from morning to night as well. By the next morning its back down again... thank god!

Shoot I have a weight difference of 5 lbs from morning and night.

I retain a LOT of Water still.

Grrrr I am ready to look at my legs and have them look like normal legs.

not big swollen lumpy elephant legs.

Uh thanks for letting me vent.

Thanks, Mine has been the same for about 6 weeks. I am getting quite frustrated by it. I know I have problems with Water retention. and people are saying my face is getting thinner. but I cant tell. and untill I drop another 20 lbs I am not posting a picture.

The things I can tell is when I work out...I just feel better. Weird.

I also weight in every morning with just bra and panties, I do notice a 2lb diffeance at night, from water weight and foods I ate thoughout the day

I had surgery May 16th and after surgery gained weight. I was told not to weigh for 10 days and now I have only lost 1lb is this normal? 11 days post surgery working out 30 mins a day on treadmill plus extra walking. liquid only diet.

I guess I am a weirdo, having a scale at home would drive me nuts. i weigh in every week at tops (take of pounds sesnsibly) meeting, a non for profit weight loss support group that does accept people who have had bariatric surgeries as well as people who are trying to loose weight. I love it. My dr. office has a support group but it is just one time a month. I find that going to tops helps me to stay focused on my weightloss goals and my eating habits
