kind of a personal question (NBR)

I've been weighing myself almost daily over the last few weeks. It's mainly because of my training and wanting to make sure I stay hydrated. AF is going to start any day now and I always get bloated and gain some weight right before, but this afternoon I was almost 6 pounds heavier than I was yesterday. Can that be right!?!? That's a lot of water....Anyone notice this too? I'm probably the only freak weighing myself daily...LOL.

I track daily, too. My weight fluctuates about 5 pounds a day. I always weigh myself in the morning before breakfast so that I get a more accurate picture. Even on days that aren't AF-ified, my weight does this. It does seem like a lot in the moment, but I think it is totally normal!

I used to have weight gain like that. I still haven't had a period so I'm not sure what my body will do post baby. Everything else is different so I can only expect.
Daily weigh ins are done here too. I also step on the scale after going to the restroom. embarrassing confession

I weigh myself almost daily and it fluctuates sometimes 4-5lbs a day. It's not fun!

I weigh myself almost daily and I fluctuate too-especially if I have been drinking a lot of water or just ate. I usually try to wiegh myself first thing in the morning right after I use the bathroom...

I usually only fluctuate 1-2 pounds but a few days before my first AF I was like 5 pounds heavier. I was so incredibly bloated I couldn't even button my pants!

Do you weigh yourself at the same time every single day?

From what I've heard, I think you weigh more at the end of the day than you do in the morning. And I think (all I thinks bc I cant remember 100%) it is common for your weight to go up/down 4-5 lbs during a normal day.

It varies, but this time, I did weigh in the AM and it was 6 pounds heavier! My weight usually goes up/down by about 2-3 pounds normally. I guess I'm just super bloated this time, but I really don't feel it. Yet.

I also weigh myself daily (before I take my shower in the morning) and my weight fluctuates by 2 pounds at the most from one day to the other.

So my weight has been back to normal range for the past couple of days, so I guess I was lugging around a lot of extra water. Now I can go have some Blue Bell
