At the very beginning after ESG the scale goes down every day. We get used to seeing that number go down each day. But unfortunately, it does not stay this way. Anywhere from 1-3 weeks out, our bodies start playing little mean tricks on us. Suddenly we go up a pound or two, then plateau, then the scale will somehow drop 3-4lbs overnight. It doesn’t make sense, but this is, in fact, NORMAL.
It’s hard to ignore that number when it goes up, but we need to remember that weight loss is not a linear line. The photo below sums this up nicely. So if the scale goes up, even though you know you did everything right, just ignore it and don’t let it get you discouraged. It will come back down (sometimes when you least expect it)! Until then, follow Dory’s example and just keep swimming.
