Noticed a pattern with my weight loss anyone else?

Almost from the begining I have noticed that I will be stuck at a weight it seems like for a week and then I will wake up one morning and have lost like 5 pounds. I was stuck at between 297-299 for about a week and it would just keep going up and down. Then I got on the scale a few days ago and bam 293 and now its staying at 293, so if my pattern stays true I will be a 297 for about a week and hopefully one morning next week wake up under the 290's. Has anybody else noticed this or is losing the same way?

Yes!  My trend is stalling mid-decade, then all of a sudden I'm at the top of the next.  It took a little while not to get anxious about the stall.  Running down the mental checklist of positive habits gave me hope to keep working my plan. 

I am very much in a stair step pattern myself and I believe that that is pretty typical. I had a ***** of a time going under 300. And now I feel my body is fighting to get to the low 280's. It seems it likes being right where I am (287) for the moment. It happens, not a biggie. :-)

I have already reached my goal, but I still notice a pattern with my weight.  The week before my period stats I am at my lowest of the month.  The day before my period starts I am up almost 5 pounds.  I will lose that in the next week in a half.  Then it starts over the next month.  It helps to recognize this so I don't freak out when I wake up one morning to find I am 5 pounds up.

my loss was like that too

I'm only a couple months out, but that's how mine has been for about the past month.  I will lose maybe 1 lb one week and then the next pound lose 4-5 lb.  I have just assumed the weeks where the weight loss is slow that my body is trying to catch up.  I think I'm losing inches too during the slow weeks.  I figure it all equals out!

This didn't happen in the beginning but it did start around month 4. Kathy

I'm 10 months out and it happens to me.  I drop to my lowest weight around the beginning of the month then I gain 3 lobs then by the end of the next month I loose like 8lbs in a week or two then the cycle starts over.  It's good to know your patterns and then when there is a gain it's not heartbreaking
