I honestly don't know why bodies fluctuate in weight so much. I honestly think my scale was broken for three days as it told me I gained 8 lbs overnight, for three days. Today it said the same thing and I took a deep breath and allowed my scale to sync with all of my apps. Once it synced it had me up 1.2 lbs... so maybe it's time to change the batteries? Ugh....
Anyways, I have been staying very active but I have regressed with my diet. I have been eating less than 1200 calories a day because I've been so upset about the 8 lb gain (which may or may not have happened). I think my body went into starvation mode but I am too depressed to pull myself out of it.
I don't know why I'm so fixated on the scale. At least in the beginning- it's like I'm terrified that I'm doing something wrong and need constant reassurance that I'm losing weight. But I'm not...
I'm going to stick with the diet and exercise and push myself to eat a minimum of 1200 calories/day. Maybe something will budge by the end of the week but I'm going to try to promise myself not to weigh myself until Saturday.
