Keeping track of the good, the bad, and the ugly!

For background I am a 27F-5’9”-starting weight= 215.9 current weight= 204.6 goal weight= 168. I use MyFitnessPal to track calories and weight. I weigh every morning after peeing and before eating so I’m at my lowest weight. Well, after continually dropping since January 2nd, when I got on the scale yesterday I was up 1.2 pounds. My heart sank. I thought “maybe I should just not log this weight and only put in the good weights on MFP.” But I didn’t! I thought, you know, I need to see every fluctuation on the scale. I need to see the numbers I want to see and the numbers I don’t. This is a lifestyle change that will fluctuate with time. Success is not linear!! There will be peaks and dips all along the way. So, I swallowed my pride and entered the higher weight into MFP. I know that in the long run when I log into MyFitnessPal a year from now I will see the true changes that occurred. The struggles and the successes. The highs and lows. The ones that give me confidence and the ones that push me to be better! Watch your process! Weight loss is a marathon- not a sprint!
