I was just reading some of the posts. I have been with MFP for 5 weeks. I have lost 10 lbs, but I am seeing on post where I should measure myself. I will take my initial measurements in the morning. After that how often should I measure myself? I weigh myself once a week on Saturday morning. Should I measure once a week also or once a month?

    When I was losing, I took measurements every Sunday. In maintenance, I take measurements once a month. Try measuring on your weigh-in day and see if that works for you.
