When I was a newbie, I used to analyze everything to death. Then, like Liz, I just learned to accept that it is what it is and all I need to do is just stay on the plan.
I can't point you to specific references right now, but I can tell you that the tendency to drop weight is tied to your hormonal cycles....we actually tend to drop in the 2 weeks following TOM, then hold on to weight the 2 weeks after ovulation. Cheats often precede TOM because of intense cravings and then people think that because of the cheat they lost weight....when in actuality it probably has more to do with the hormones and not the cheats. That's my $0.02.
