Kicked in out of the blue!

Can the band just kick in out of the blue???

I am not talking about restriction.

I am talking about just weight loss??

I have had the most amazing 3 days in a row.

I am a scale-aholic I weigh myself at least 2x in the morning & sometimes at night. ( I know how wrong that is but I just can't seem to stop it-unless I am on vacation) I have been at a plateau for at least 5-6 weeks constantly gaining & losing the same 2 pounds. Up & Down Up & Down. I haven't changed anything in my routine-except a trip to vegas where i did consume alot of alcohol. Which typically isn't in my diet at all.

Well the past 3 days everyday my scale has gone down a FULL POUND. I have lost 3 1/2 pound in 3 days. I know its not alot or earth shattering but I haven't seen the scale pass 229 in sooo damn long & this morning it flashes 225.5! I almost didn't believe it!! I am happy but hesitant.

Can this happen all of the sudden?? Is this how its going to be a platuea for weeks & than a loss of 3 or more? Iam not complaining but just praying that it keeps going down at a steady pace instead of a repeat preformance.

Oh how I would love to be under 200 before my Birthday.

To be honest, I don't believe a new 'low' weight until I've 'bounced down' to it a few times. Like when I my scale first said 225, I had to see it for a few days for it to be 'official', you know? lol

I also feel the same way but only for two days straight-lol That has been my pattern. I also know that when it flashes a lower pound or two that ususally the next day I will be .5 less if I eat right that day. Isn't funny how we second guess & doubt ourselves constantly. At least I know I do.
