How often do you weigh yourself?

And why so often or not so often?

Add me!!

Go....

every morning if i followed my routines right.

IanRS

I measure every morning - enter it into a spreadsheet and calculate the 7 day rolling average. That way I get a reasonably smoothed result and am not so bothered by daily fluctuations

lilmissmanx

every day in the morning before I shower. Just because the scales are there and it lets the shower warm up before I jump in

Weekly, but I'm looking to transition to daily and monitor the average.
I measure every other week.

Wildstorms

Every morning. I prefer it to weekly. I downloaded 'happy scale' and log it in that so it smooths out the downward trend

Allipalli66

Every morning and before I go to bed -it helps me to control my diet .some say I'm obsessed but it really keeps it in check

cyronius

Every morning... As long as the trend is in the right direction, I don't care about daily fluctuations...

snowflakesav

Every day. It is one of the keys to long term maintenance for me.

Plump_Artist

Once a week on a Thursday as it aids me in getting my mindset right for the weekend. I don't do it daily because for me, it's an unhealthy obsessive habit.

Weekly for me, at least till I've made some good progress, then I'll swap to daily and use https://trendweight.com/ so that I can see the overall trend and ignore the fluctuations!

yoda8501

Every morning because I have hit a plateau and I'm trying hard to break through. I have been stuck at the same weight for a while.

ohmscheeks

She asked me if I do this everyday. I said often.

fullylugged

Every Saturday morning. Unless I think I gained that week

RiverMelSong

Twice a week, on monday morning and friday morning. Monday is my ''official'' weigh in day because of a challenge I'm doing on here

In fact, the first time i put on a significant amount of weight was when I listened to the advice to 'ditch the scales'. It turns out that I can put on a significant amount of weight before my clothes start to get tight (at least a stone - it goes on my face, lower arms and legs, chest and rib cage - areas that are less constrained by clothes - I lose it here first as well, so I have to lose a lot before I start to feel I've lost something).

Liftng4Lis

I check every day or two.

prettyleelee

Daily and I store it in myweighttracker it helps me see what my average is and the ups and downs.

SAR1L

I weigh in weekly, sometimes midweek. However I want to focus on the healthy habits as my acquired goal, not the habit of jumping on the scale every day.

PinkDeerBoy

I usually weigh at least Monday and Friday.

I weigh myself everyday, but only record my Sunday weigh-ins on my Fitbit app. I do daily checks because to me it's more demoralizing to think 'Yeah! I'm *killing* it!' all week - staying in my deficit, working out like a fiend - and then get on the scale at the end of the week to find I've gained. Whereas, if I see the daily fluctuation, I know that it's okay even if my 'official' weigh-in is up a bit because I was down earlier in the week, and I'll likely go right back down if I keep plugging away. I don't get too excited over gains of a pound or less unless it happens more than once in a row and stays on for more than a week... If that happened, I'd know I needed to adjust something.

arditarose

In maintenance, every day or two. In a deficit-once per week or not even. I don't lose weight in a linear fashion anymore so there is no point in hopping on the scale more than that. I trust I'm in a deficit and try to be patient.

pat0254

I weigh once a week, only because daily gains and loses can be frustrating, due to water weight, etc. Once a week seems to show my real progress.

jotti101

I weigh myself on Saturday Mornings, that way if I am going out for dinner on Saturday night it balances out during the week.

GeddesFit

I weigh myself weekly on Saturdays or Sunday's first thing in the morning and naked. If I weighed myself daily I would obsess over it and it wouldn't make me a very good person. I've got 38 pounds to go and am losing approx 1-2 pounds a week so I'm happy with that.

abatonfan

I weigh myself almost every day, but I only log when I see a loss. I'm starting to work on maintaining my weight, and find it easier to differentiate water weight from fat gain if I weigh myself every day. If I stay at that higher weight range for more than a few weeks and have ruled out girly hormones (curse you, very late Aunt Flo. I just gained 9-ish pounds in two weeks with absolutely no change in diet), then I know that I need to start cutting back to prevent the weight gain from getting too out-of-hand.

_lyndseybrooke_

Typically once a week on Saturday mornings. Over the past couple of weeks I've been weighing daily. Not sure if I'll continue doing that. We'll see.

welshchick666

Just once a week for me is enough

LeslieB042812

I weigh myself daily (naked, of course), right after waking up and using the restroom. I use an app (Libra) that shows the trend weight, in addition to the daily weights. My weight fluctuates by up to 2 lbs daily (depending on tummy activity, hydration, TOM, sodium, etc.), but generally hovers around the same midpoint, which I consider my true weight. Daily tracking helps me not get too excited or discouraged by daily fluctuations. I think if I weighed myself weekly I'd go nuts when it was up 2 lbs in a week that I had stayed on track, just because that happened to be an "up" day!

hotelsix

Every morning and I do my measurements once a week.

Teamhynes

Every Monday unless I'm away on vacation and hit a two week span. The daily variances don't matter to me right now so I may change my weekly habit when I lose more weight, but not right now.
