Explains that daily weigh-ins are misleading because water retention, hormonal shifts, and muscle gain can cause fluctuations that increase stress, recommends tracking waist-to-height ratio and appetite instead, notes that internal fat often decreases before visible weight changes, and emphasizes addressing insulin resistance through diet and lifestyle rather than fixating on the scale.
