I can almost write a dissertation on this shit but the advice I give anyone who is stressing about the scales is a bit counter-intuitive.
Weigh yourself 4 or 5 times a day and write it down but dont give a fuck about the number for at least a month. If your diet and exercise are on point you just need to trust the process.
Some people fluctuate wildly based on body water, women especially around their menstral cycle. If you wait a whole week between weigh-ins and you had a salty carb heavy meal the night before your weigh in you can have lost 2lbs but be holding 3lbs of water thats going to disappear by the end of the day.
Essentially you need to get a feel for how much your weight swings on average throughout a day so when you have been doing everything right but the scales dont refect that you have a set of data you can examine to make sure you are overall trending the way you hope.
