Some of us weigh monthly, some weekly, some not at all, and some of us daily. I've seen a lot of "newbies" here that have gone through a bit of a panic bordering on giving up because of the kinds of fluctuations that daily weighers can see (and even weekly weighers, too).
I thought I'd share the strange journey "riding the scale" that I had this week, in hopes that it might give comfort to others who have a similar experience:
Monday- 283
Tuesday- 287
Wednesday- 290 (the last time I saw this number was June 25th)
Thursday- 288
Friday- 287
Saturday- 284
Sunday- 283
Now, this was my TOM week, sure, but I have never seen such a dramatic "tide" before, and I can certainly see how I might have been freaking out a bit by Friday if I hadn't had the experience to know that this was going to pass (whether I believed it or not).
So, the moral: the next time you get on the scale and you feel like fainting- don't worry. Just keep on keeping on and it will sort itself out.
