Elaine is right - don't keep weighing yourself throughout the day - it will make you crazy AND depressed.  Your weight at any given moment depends what you've eaten or drank, plus what type of activity you've been engaged in.  

Pick a time each day to weigh yourself (I do it first thing in the morning, just before i get into the shower), then don't even LOOK at the scale again that day...... Some people prefer to weigh in only once a week or even less - just DON'T weigh more than once/day.  

Good luck and keep posting.

Through out the day the scales will keep changing depending what you eat and drink,It is best to weigh yourself at roughly the same time each day, I weigh in the morning when I get up, others weigh at night, so it depends what suits you, I wouldnt keep weighing yourself throughout the day the changes will drive you mad, choose a good time for you and stick to it,
