How often do you weigh yourself?

Every morning when I wake up, right before my shower.0

Once a month. That's usually before I go in to see the shrink or primary care doctor(sometimes it's twice a month if it's for both the shrink and the primary care doctor). Usually though it's only once a month. It used to be everyday, and then it used to be once a week. Then last year in the great bathroom flood of 2013(long story), the scale broke because by the time I wanted to go in and move the scale so it wouldn't break, it was too late. So now I only weigh myself at the shrink's office when I go.0

Everyday, but I only concern myself with the bi-weekly trend.0

I try to only weigh myself Saturday morning, but temptation usually creeps in mid week.0

I can't weigh myself everyday...it would totally discourage me. I weigh once a week and if I don't see a loss or only a slight one I get de-motivated. How does everyone deal with this0

I usually weigh myself every morning, expecting fluctuations, but only record it once a week, on Saturday. I also measure myself on Saturday mornings.0

I used to weigh myself daily. I used MFP about two years ago and lost about 25 lbs. Weighing daily caused me to become obsessed with my weight loss. I think that being obsessed with my weight caused me to quit losing, honestly. Now, I am recommitted and I have decided to only weigh myself biweekly. If I can see larger numbers over a longer period of time I feel like that would be more satisfying for me to see and more encouraging for me to continue to do good for myself.0

Every morning. Seeing the difference in fluctations helps me stay on track and directly see what might be impacting (high sodium day, TOM, etc). I only record after my weight has stayed the same for a few days to a week.

Every morning. I graph it to see where the overall trend is going and make adjustments based on that.

Everyday before breakfast! It reminds me not to over eat and get moving.0

I weigh in every sunday shortly after waking up, I find with working full time doing odd hours it easier to stick to one specific day each week at roughly the same time. I do weight and waist size0
