Hmmm.... for 2 weeks in a row, due to water retention in overtrained muscles (*due to weight lifting), I'd weigh myself on monday, "gain" 1-2 lbs in water weight, then the following day go back to my original weight of 170.8 lbs
It's had me feeling a bit frustrated at time, lol.
I was thinking, now that my muscles have healed from the overtraining... I thought this week I'd try to cut my calories by 200 calories (*from 1,500-1,600 to 1,300-1,400) and weigh myself every morning to check my progress to see if I drop some weight by next monday's weigh in. Then by next week monday (my "official" weigh in), I'll know if I need to change my exercise routine or caloric intake.
Good idea? Suggestions?

PS: is a plateau after 6 weeks of not losing weight or 3 weeks?
