This is the one thing that I took from Atkins that I really liked. Weigh yourself every day, then get your weekly average, weight can vary from day-to-day, especially during that TOM (as Mary says). This keeps me from getting discouraged by fluctuations and gives me incentive to stay on plan every day.

Don't you get discourage with yourself when it goes up and down like that? I did that for awhile, and I gave up on eating right and went right back to my bad eating habits. I finally decided that the only way I will fine out it I am losing, by how loose my clothes are getting, and when ever I go see the doctor. It works for me alot better.
Now I am eating healthier, and happy about doing it.
