I am trying to minimize my reaction (over-reaction?) to any given single-day measurement. Mostly, by my writings here, where I record it.
For the most part, I think I'm successful at this. For one thing, I am minimizing the attention I give this - it is pretty much limited to the time I spend actually doing the weighing and then writing about it. The rest of the time, I don't think about it much.
The other thing I've done is to take a longer-term view. Besides the graphs I show regularly (daily and weekly weight, weekly measurements), I have built a chart for the year's daily weight. The longer-term view is very helpful at putting the daily fluctuations in perspective.

Well, I didn't start yesterday. I think you are right about the whole grains, though. Bread throws me off and I yearn for it. We will see. Have to just keep trying. Love you
In theory, the fiber in whole grains should make them absorb slower, create less of a glycemic impact; in practice, though, it seems that this isn't the case. I've read and repeated (because it makes sense) that mankind is not a grain-eating species. As a species, we've only understood how to make grains digestable in the last 10,000 years; the other 2 million years of our existence were spent without eating grains.
