Body weight moves with sodium, carbohydrate intake, menstrual cycle, bowel movements and hydration — often by more than a kilo overnight. Judging a week of effort by a single morning reading is the fastest way to quit.
Better practice:
- Weigh at the same time, same conditions, once or twice a week.
- Look at the 4-week trend line, not individual points.
- Track waist circumference monthly — it tracks visceral fat better than weight.
- Track how clothes fit, energy levels, and gym performance.
In the Nutrimenters app, your weight chart shows a trend line for exactly this reason.
