Just curious, do you weigh yourself in the morning and use that for your daily weight? Or another time? Just getting started, thanks in advance:)

I weight myself in the morning and after work once or twice a week. They are never the same. But I use the weight after work for my weigh-ins. Just pick a time and stay consistent.1

Everyday, in the morning. after using the bathroom.8
-
I do it in the morning after I use the restroom. I do not wear any clothes either. I weigh once a week officially.4

I weigh once a month, in the morning after using the bathroom, and no clothes.3

In the morning after using the toilet but before any food or drink intake.0

Once a week in the morning after using the bathroom.1

'Officially' I weigh in when I wake up on Saturdays, after using the bathroom and before eating/drinking anything. (The actual time depends on whether I worked a night shift!) And I weigh myself unofficially, um, too often. More than once a day at times, lol.1
-
First thing in the morning after bathroom, before eating and naked. I record my daily weight in Libra - a trend weight app, and record my Friday weight in MFP (before I have my weekend takeaway/drinks which tends to cause a bit of water weight gain Sun - Tues).2

I weight in at my TOPS meeting on Thrusday0

Every morning after using the restroom and before eating or drinking. I track my weight using the fitbit scale so I can get my weight as well as body fat percentage. I like the app because it allows me to see my average weight every week. It syncs with My fitness pal and on the weeks that im not progressing as fast as I would like it allows me to look back and see that i am still on the right track.0

Also, in the morning. Naked and before breakfast. Thing is, I want my body weight, not added variables. It ensures consistency.0

1st thing Monday morning "officially" anyway. I sometimes do after a 10k run (normally Saturday or Sunday) out of curiosity0

In the morning totally naked of course!0

Once a week, on Friday morning!0

I weigh in on Saturday mornings, after my workout, before eating anything.0

I weigh every Friday first thing in the morning. Always weigh at the same time each time you weigh as your water levels should be around the same.0
-
Once a week on Saturday mornings ..try not to weigh myself throughout the week because that way I'm more excited to see the results and have been disheartened by weighing more regularly1
-
Mornings. Once or twice a week. Same clothes every time.0
-
Once a week on a Monday morning, just to start the week off right.0

I weigh daily but I only log it on Mondays and it's early morning before eating and I wear the same thing when I weigh each week.0
-
Daily, first thing in the morning0
-
Every morning after necessities and before coffee. Officially my WI is Monday night at Weight Watchers meeting but I monitor myself daily. It helps keep me on track. Then Monday I record my early morning and my WW WI to compare my trend and accomplishments, or not.0

once a week, first thing in the am, preferably after bm :-P0

Like a lot of people I weigh in the morning, after I wake up..use the facilities, but before I eat or drink.
Unlike most, I wear my normal clothes (no shoes)...that way I don't 'suddenly gain 5 lbs' at the doctor's office. My last doctor started to laugh when I said "wait, let me empty my pockets..." but then I pulled out a wallet, 2 key rings, 2 cell phones and my glasses case.
I also insist on removing my shoes "if you don't measure how tall I am in in them, then you're not gonna weigh me in them either"0 -
In the morning after I run right before I jump in the shower. I drink coffee beforehand and also drink water during my run if I it's 5+ miles.
I know it's not that accurate depending on how much I sweat and how much I'm drinking, but it helps me see trends since I do it so consistently.0 -
I don't weigh in the morning because my weights are consistently higher in mornings than later in the day.
The only reason for this is I follow an intermittent fasting schedule. I eat from about 6-10pm each day. I usually weigh in after work, just before breaking my fast just like most people are doing in the morning, and after most of my bigger drinks have made their way thru my system.0 -
The soundless vibration of the Fitbit alarm awakens the weight loss supplicant, Kullerva, at the fourth hour of the morning, while darkness still grips the land.
The weight loss supplicant tiptoes into the bathroom and turns on the lights, angling the Solar Scale That Judges All in the direction of the flickering incandescence. After voiding waste, the weight loss supplicant ascends to the glass top of the scale. She may or may not hold her breath.
Upon receiving judgment from the Solar Scale That Judges All, the supplicant will suffer rage and indignation if the judgment seems unfair, and almost certainly unfounded joy and elation if the Scale judges in her favor.
The ritual complete, the supplicant will descend from the Scale That Judges All with the promise to do better in the future. The supplicant will then record her weight in the Journal of Progress.
Repeat ad infinitum, or until goal is attained.
Seriously, though...I give less power to the scale than I used to. When in maintenance I weigh once a week. When I'm losing, it's every day when I wake up. Do whatever works for you.0
