But part of me thinks that's a crock of **** and I really do have to starve myself into psychosis (not that I'm not halfway there already) if I want to be thin.

it could be any number of things. weight fluctuates a lot from day to day, which is why at first, i would recommend only weighing yourself once a week.

definitely. i always make sure that i weigh myself at the same time every day - right after i wake up & pee.
