Does anyone else feel this way

I know every body seize don't watch the scale to much, but I do. Twice a day. Just to see how my body reacts through out the day.

I finally made it to 200# four months ago. And now I gotten to 209# at around the same body fat, (I'm sure its some water & fat, I'm not kidding myself) But I look ok. When I gain, it's usally at least 6-8 pounds within a week or two. And it takes a while to adjust to the extra weight I feel sloppy for about a month, then I lose a couple of pounds and I feel good again.

But the thing is, I get aggravated that I lose the extra couple of pounds. Don't get me wrong I know I'm gaining, I was just wondering if other people have a problem staying positive. Even though you know your gaining.

My workout parnter is 5'8 218 and he always stays around 6% BF, so he looks huge. And I'm always trying to make better gains to catch up. So I have a constant reminder that I have a long way to go.

i used to be like that, i started eating every 2 hours and getting on the scale 2-3 times a day. before i knew it i was 330lbs @ 5'11'' w/ 24% bf. know i weigh 240 w/ 13%bf and i feel small as hell, but im stronger now and healthier. now i just go by how i feel, not how much i weigh. im also into powerlifting, but i do care about how i look and feel.
