[QUOTE="Andydragon, post: 2380957, member: 521079"] Adapted from a post I made in another thread; Bodily weight fluctuates daily. It is perfectly possible to put on or lose 2kg from day to day without anything changing. It could be that you ate a few more carbs and your body has absorbed more water or to be blunt, you haven't gone to the toilet yet... I know you said carnivore so carbs unlikely, but still, it fluctuates naturally, that said low carb diets and if you add carbs your body can absorb water again like a sponge, I often notice when I have a heavy carb or even more than nirmal for me, I will be heavier for a few days It's normal, so don't get discouraged! So, do you weigh yourself at the same time of the day on those days you do? Personally I weigh myself first thing in the morning after waking and after going to the toilet. I also use a site called weightgrapher.com because it shows the trend Over time is important, week on week weight will change, but watch the trend. Another thing is weight loss will slow. Most sites recommend a kg a week is sustainable max loss, and as you get lighter it will slow, as the body needs less calories/energy which makes sense as you are carrying less around (sorry). You likely get also lose faster at the beginning, it will then slower and eventually plateau. Since may until i hit my target I was a steady kg a week pretty much until I got to a certain few months in and then it slowed naturally. I have graphed daily at times and it's like a rollercoaster Have attached my 3 month view, but can assure you a week view can be as bouncy but my trend is down and that's the main thing [/QUOTE]
