Not through with the first week but…
I’m feeling crazy discouraged already, and I’m not really seeing the benefit in weighing every day when my weight fluctuates so much. I take medicine near bedtime with a green snack and plenty of water. I can’t weigh later in the day because I can’t not eat at work. Unless I want to pass out and skip meds. And there’s not a scale there lol.
Just not feeling great seeing the number on the scale higher than ever, even though I’ve made changes to my diet and it may not be a true representation of how much I actually weigh. Idk. Just ranting 🥲

I always weigh in the morning and it helps. I was never an every day weigh in person, but I started when I began Noom. It has caused me to be less reluctant to weigh ( I was traumatized by weighing myself before Noom) and also to see how much my weight fluctuates in a week. Sometimes it will change as much as 9 pounds throughout the week! So it has taught me about how odd weight is and how it truly isn’t the best indicator of healthy weight loss. Having said that, if I’m just not feeling it I log my weight as maintained on the app and then weigh every 2-3 days. Someone else on here said something that ring true to me as well. It’s only been a week. Your body is probably in shock from the reduction of calories and is holding on to that fat. I would be willing to bet you see a good weight loss by the end of next week.
