 Member 1762, 624 posts SQ 152.5, BP 125, DL 170447.5 kgs @ 81.5kgs UnEq | Just a quick question about bodyweight, mine fluctuates quite dramatically week to week. I'm looking at competing in the 83kg class next year and have been weighing myself every week at the same time and day. I've noticed that from one week to the next my weight fluctuates between 82 and 87kg. I don't eat different things or do anymore or less training so just wondered if it was normal? Haha! | ||

 Not so much as forgotten as can't remember Member 894, 4924 posts SQ 245, BP 167.5, DL 272.5685.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | My mate sam weighs 116kg plus in person and on sugden is about a stone lighter if that helps! If you are eating consistently (and drinking) then it may be normal for yourself! | ||

another lover of conans wheel Member 1116, 2379 posts SQ 275, BP 210, DL 330815.0 kgs @ 134kgs UnEq | mine fluctuates a tiny bit, a couple pounds here n there but not 5 kg. i have trained many people in the past who have had big weight fluctuations day to day. obvious causes are time of day, water n food consumption, stress, toilet trips, using dif scales and moving portable scales to dif places and uneven floors | ||

 never too old Member 637, 760 posts | When are you weighing yourself? you say same time of day, but if its later on in the day then its probably a difference in water weight. Weight yourself first thing in the morning after a piss for more accurate results. You'll always fluctuate a bit though pal. | ||

 Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22058 posts | Mine doesn't fluctuate at all. I've gradually gained weight over the past few years at a slow/steady rate. | ||

Member 1762, 624 posts SQ 152.5, BP 125, DL 170447.5 kgs @ 81.5kgs UnEq | I'll start weighing myself in the mornings, usually do it later on which might be where the fluctuation is as you said. Definitely have a steady diet, I know pretty much exactly how much protein/carbs etc is in every meal I have so it's not my diet, I eat the same things pretty much every day (used to be really strict with what I ate due training more like a bodybuilder and even considered competing at one point) | ||
