I used to work at Curves and the women always told me "just wait until you hit 40" or "just wait until menopause". I don't think I'm near menopause, but I did just turn 40 so I'm sure things will be changing.

I wasn't expecting a good weigh-in, so it didn't have a huge effect on my mood. Since I've started eating vegan and really increasing my fiber intake, I've noticed the foods that react differently to my body and it's been eye-opening.

I don't let the daily fluctuations bother me because I know it's nearly impossible to gain a couple of pounds of fat overnight! But I know that it's hard for some people to see the scale go up 2-3 pounds in just 24 hours, so I understand why people weigh weekly.
