I am so glad you posted this! I was embarassed to admit that I had become obsessed with weighing myself every 30 minutes, and I would go up and down all the time...sometimes two pounds. I have been thinking my scale is defective (I bought the cheapest digital scale they had at Wal-Mart) but I just have too much pride to return a scale and claim it defective (Can't you just imagine what the salespeople would say after I left!)

So, can someone gain 3 lbs in 30 minutes? I've gotten on the scale 5 minutes later and was up two pounds. Funny....it never went back down though.
