Yes, but if you keep track of it, you learn how much weight a glass of water adds, for example, and you can calibrate for that. I'd say you learn more about how to control your weight in the long run if you keep track of these daily fluctuations.
- johnswamps 16y agoBut these fluctuations are often just noise. Having a glass of water before you step on the scale isn't going to help you lose or gain weight, but it still shows up on the scale. You're just micro-managing things that don't matter on this point. And then are just some things you can't control. If you have bowel movements at the same time every day, then that's not an issue; but if you go at different times every day (or not even every day), you might register as having gained two pounds one morning, when in fact you ate at a caloric deficit the day before. But if you are going to weigh yourself every morning, keep this in mind and try to keep the exact same conditions every morning. Do it at the same time every day, either eat breakfast before weighing yourself every time or after every time, etc., otherwise you'll be worrying about changes in weight that don't mean anything.
