Okay, so there's nothing wrong with weighing daily, if that works for you. I just liked the sound of the title.
Normally I *do* weigh daily, once, first thing in the morning. It keeps me on track and I don't stress too much about the fluctuations. But every so often I start to obsess about the number, and at the end of last month that started to happen. Mostly because I was stressed out about some personal life nonsense and went from being right on the cusp of the 140s back up to almost 160 (!) practically overnight. It was pretty depressing.
I was so stressed out that I had two periods last month, which did not help. It was pretty weird, and it was not helping my stress levels. So I decided to stay off the scale until December. But the stress didn't go away with the scale, and instead of focusing on my health and fitness like I said I was going to, I went off the rails a little (okay, a lot) on my diet.
The upside is that I kept up with my workouts. The downside is that I still gained back six pounds (for real pounds, not water weight) this month. I'm down two now, but I'm still not back at my ticker weight. Things are going back in the right direction now that I'm weighing daily again and sticking with my diet. Sugar is banished, and getting the carbs back under control is going okay.
I know what I need to do, of course -- I've been at this over three years now, I better know by now! -- it's just that sometimes doing it is tough. So here's my public declaration of re-commitment. And a promise that there will be no more scale breaks of more than a day or two. It just doesn't work for me, apparently.
