Do I Trust This?

I'm up earlier than usual so I can go to the Boomer Job Fair this morning.  I'm pretty sure it will be packed, and I'm not enthused about it yet, but curiosity will get the better of me if I don't go. Anyway, I weighed myself (like I do every morning) and the scale said 217.  217?  I weighed 222 yesterday.  How does one lose 4 lbs overnight? My scale has always been trustworthy in the past, but I'm not sure I dare believe this number.  Kix, perplexed

That's 5lbs and sure why the hell not!  If its been good in the past and it gave you that reading consistently, believe it and be happy :)  Or you could take my husband's (and mother's) point of view, which I am starting to believe in - expect the worst and then you'll never get disappointed.  Good luck at the job fair!

I've had days where my weight changed by as much as 8 pounds in a single day, so I say trust it.  Happens to me sometimes when I've been retaining fluids, then suddenly peeing like the proverbial racehorse.  Or when I have the problem Jen's had going on recently (constipation).  Or worse yet, both things going on at the same time!!!!   Kellie

I see something in the not to far off distance. could it be yes ?maybe it is! Yes  that  is onderland around the corner.  And yes kix you can loose 4 pounds overnight.  it could be water weight that decided to pass. I also have a belief that nuber loss and inches loss can not go hand in hand one goes at a time. if you notice during a platu we general loose inches lots and lots and when we stop that pounds drop off. you may have come to the end of a dry spell and now you will drop a little befor the next platu. or that is my MHO. good going

Trust it Kix - wow, way to go!!! Try to have a good time today.

217! that's awesome.  I'd like for my scale to do that to me tomorrow too.  I was still in my cycle on Monday when I weighed.  I weigh on Monday & Wednesday so lets cross our fingers for at least another pound.

What the hey.....be happy!  LOL
