  1. When I get busy with work, I get so tired so quickly and I don't even want to go for my daily walk. I and the dogs suffer for it in multiple ways. Good for you for keeping up the good work every day. And, yeah, I get weight swings of 2 lbs often from one day to the next, sometimes 3 or 4 for no apparent reason. So, like you, I look for the trend from week to week.

  2. Yeah, I think the way the body retains and let's go of water definitely effects weight. I've been weighing myself at the same time of day on the Rec. Center's scale after my swim workouts so conditions should be close but the body is often unpredictable I guess.
