This is the most common pattern I have seen over the weeks and months I have been watching what I eat. I will see a drop of 2 lbs and then the 2 lbs will return for a while, I will go down one, up one and then I will be back down the two. It's not a strictly linear pattern though that is what I expect many days. I feel grumpy when the number goes up and get excited when the number goes down. And in the end, as long as the trend is a downward trend then I think I am doing ok.
This week has been no different. I was at 153 last week and then I got up as high as 156 this week but this morning I was back down to 153. I realized that I have not been drinking enough water during the day and there is a part of me that resists drinking lots and lots of water because I feel like it will just make me weigh more. I know, this may sound silly but I think I have been doing this. So, yesterday I changed it up and drank a ton of water (probably 12 glasses total) and the next morning, that's when I was back to 153. Huh. Again, the "experts" are right and perhaps we do need more water. Needless to say, I am on the water bandwagon again.
We'll see how my body responds tomorrow . . .
