SCALE????
I weighed myself yesterday - 328. I weighed myself last night - 334. I weighed myself this morning - 328.
This might seem obsessive, but really I had been checking out scales online, and read some reviews about fluctuations.
Is it possible to gain 6lbs over a day and then drop it again overnight? That seems like an awful lot of water weight.
If not, any suggestions for a good scale that is very accurate?

More than not you will weight more in the evening that's why you should always weigh yourself first thing in the morning (after you pee) and naked!! That's your true weight.
I bought a scale from Weigh****chers that also measures body fat which is really accurate. I compared it to the doctor scale and body fat hand held at curves and I got the same measurements.

I am not sure how accurate my scale is because its showing i am losing weight and i haven't done that for a long time...hehehehe...but i use a weigh****chers scale. it seems to mesh with the doctors scale pretty good too. Funny but just for fun i weighed myself yesterday morning and i weighed more than i did when i weighed last night and then this morning i was 4 lbs lighter..
I have a Withings wi-fi scale that communicates with my computer, my iPad, and my iPhone (yes, I'm a techie freak). I like it because it keeps a graph of my progress, and also has a line that shows my weight average over time. My daily weight can easily go up and down from day to day, and does- my graph looks like irregular saw teeth. I would think that the up and down would be greater for men.

Can I jump in and suggest weighing once a week? I would lose my mind if I weighed twice a day. I had my husband hide our scales when I found myself obsessing, and yes, weighing twice a day is obsessing!!
Give it a shot. Your clothes and tape measure will let you know how you are doing and if you are following your instructions, getting in the protein, vitamins and water you need and avoiding the whites (bread, rice, potatoes, sugar, flour and pasta) you will lose.
Heck, you might go for once a month and give yourself a real surprise!
