Maybe you should brush up on what the first amendment protects and doesn ' t protect . I ' m all for voicing your opinion but swaying vulnerable people to follow a man who resembles a dictatorfuhrer is like following Freud ' s id . You just don ' t do it ~~ for the long run ~~ at all . <| sep |> I had a digital scale that would literally give me 5 different weights in 5 different consecutive attempts . They are terribly inaccurate . I ' m talking like a 10 lb difference from one second to the next . It was downright maddening . My advice ? Get a more reliable scale . It is also true , as others have said , that it could be water weight . I know for me the week leading up to my period I will retain a huge amount of water weight . The second I start my cycle I ' ll lose about 5 lbs . So , don ' t get discouraged . Just stick to your plan .
