Whatever anyone tells you, it's only good or bad depending on how you take what the scale tells you each day.

I'm an every morning weigher. I'll admit it freely.

It was an awesome motivator when I was losing an average of 4.75lbs per week. But last week I hung around the same 2 pounds all week and it DROVE ME NUTS!

And to tears. I couldn't figure out what I did wrong. I was trying to accept that my body just lost 50% of the excess weight in 3 weeks and it probably needed a rest.

So as an obsessive, every day weigher... my advice would be to weigh every day if the weight is coming off. But if you notice it doesn't budge for a day or two, throw that scale in a cabinet for a week and THEN check. Don't obsess that you haven't lost a pound in 2-3 days by checking the damn thing every morning. God that just about threw me over the edge...

Don't be like I was! lol
