I up-voted your parent comment, because it was a semi-legitimate question (semi, because the GP comment you made was a bit wild/out of context). However, asking the forum 'why' or playing a role of down-vote brigading is frow

Those types of swings seem like a potential thyroid issue. I'm not a doctor, but had similar issues as a child (10-15 lb swings by week). Got some medication and fixed it. Suggestion: focus on your health :) The thing to keep in mind,

From interviews by folks on Wallstreetoasis.com, this is my understanding of the hours. Some days they may have 2-4 hour breaks (gym time / internet time), then have to crunch in the evening when a client, or an internal-facing client
