    Once a day. I know which weight is water weight and which is fat. I allow any water weight fluctuation, but if I gain a pound of fat, I'll eat at a deficit until it's gone.

    How do you know the difference between water weight and actual gain

    Charting will show you this. The LINE is your true weight. A spike is water.

    What app is that please?

    Libra for Android
    I like using Libra. Now I need a wifi scale (Withings or Aria) to auto input the data.

    Weigh 1-3x a week, vary by +/-1.5 lbs approx.

    I am more forgiving. I weigh once a month and know I can fluctuate 2-4 pounds.

    Every morning, from 165 to 168#. It's easy to simply do it every day.

    Daily. 2 lbs. Also continue to log. Found when I didn't do this I gained.

    every day, just became a habit, but I measure my body fat % once a week with SkuptAim. weight loss became totally uninteresting since I started lifting, now my focus is on reducing my body fat and gaining muscle mass :smiley:

    Monday to Friday- once a day - fluctuation can be as much as 4 - more than that is a warning and I weigh again in the afternoon and will usually be lower. I don't weigh on the weekend as I can be up to 10 over, in most cases that will be gone by Monday morning.
