The fluctuations aren't important, though. What's important is the long-term trends. Bodies can't metabolise 8lbs of fat that quickly, nor can they produce an additional 7lbs that quickly either. That'd just be water weight.

Yes, I know. The trend so far after 18 days is for me to stay exactly the same weight. Or I could have put weight on but lost a lot of water so it's disguising it.
-
18 days isn't much. As somebody who's reasonably fit (gym often, eat fairly well), my guideline for seeing results from changing training programs or diet plans is 6-12 weeks (unless I get hurt, in which case I'll cut that earlier).
-
If nothing has happened by the end of the month, I think I would be better going back to the diet I know works and perhaps trying keto again when I am out of morbid obesity and it's safer for nothing to happen for months.

The fluctuations aren't important though, as they're mostly water added/removed. A very unreliable guide.
-
They're going up and down and keep returning me to exactly the same weight I was when I started this 18 days ago.

Yes I agree, you will put weight on and lose weight in a see saw fashion, and if the up slide happens to coincide with your weekly weigh in a few times that could actually be demoralising. When losing weight I weighed every day and the fluctuations were half a kilo some days.
-
But because I was aware of the over all trend I was not worried about "wasted weeks" where I had put weight back on, I knew I weighed less even a day ago, and this weight game is probably water or a big meal

I do daily ones when I'm tracking; the phone tells me what the weekly average is for me.

Absolutely agree. My experience is it's best to do it everyday and store the data in some app that calculates your trend. Fluctuation is pretty high between days.

yeah, honestly, more readings means fluctuations are less likely to matter, and the average is more likely to be accurate.
