Default Question About 1/2 lb Weight Gain

Okay. I have been on induction one solid week as of yesterday. I have steady been losing weight, but was dismayed to see that I actually have gained 1/2 lb. since yesterday. I have ruled out some things that could have caused the weight gain (not to offer too much information but I have ruled out it being my TOTM or needing to go to the restroom). Is this normal for weight to fluctuate like this on induction, and to actually gain weight? I know its only a 1/2 lb., but I want to make sure that I am doing everything right. I did nothing yesterday "bad" and have been following the diet. I was just surprised that not only did I not lose any, but I actually gained. I have a very accurate scale. Thank you.

PS) I know that some people say that when dieting you should only weigh yourself once a week, but it REALLY helps me to weigh myself once a day. It helps me keep up the good work and stay focused. Just to be safe, even though we are allowed 24 ounces of diet soda a day, I have cut it out altogether, though I was drinking a small amount each day all along.
