My Fluctuating Weight

Most of the people do not really care or pay attention to their weight and while that is fine for them it is not fine for me.  About a year ago, I was hospitalized with a staph infection and lost 10 pounds. I lost another 10 pound just by counting my calories and keeping my intake level at 2000/day.  Then I had a colonoscopy and lost another 10 pounds...  and, while I have about 20 more pounds to go until I am at the weight I should be for my age and height, I want to maintain my current level and not let it creep back up.

My scales are not the most expensive kind and have been fairly accurate with the digital scales at doctor's offices; however, my weight can fluctuate 2 pounds from one day to the next and according to my daily calorie chart, I am eating the same calories from one day to the next for those 2 days specifically.

SO...  why the change?

And, when my weight is down and I decide to eat more than I should at least for that one day, my weight does not change at all as far as those scales are concerned.

While this might not bother other folks, it bothers me...  which is odd because one would think that I have more serious things about which to worry these days...
