When to weigh in?

How often do you Recommend weighing in when first starting out losing weight?

I hate the scale. No I hate the number is see on scale. I never have had a schedule to weighing myself but I yo-yo with about 5 pounds. I get excited I lose weight then next time I weigh in I gain it.

i weight in every morning, first thing as soon as i go to the bathroom...it helps me see how different foods etc affect weight fluctuations etc

I'll admit - I weigh every single morning but I only track my weight on Wednesdays.

Literally same.

I weigh daily and use a weight tracker to "weed out" non-consequential fluctuations (I use Libra, Happy Scale is another app that does the same thing).

There is no one right answer. The right number of times to weigh will take into account your personal preferences and the data you need to track progress/make adjustments.

I weigh at least every other day but only track once a week. Same day weekly. It depends how it effects you. I find it keeps me accountable but your weight will go up and down no matter that you do or don't do so if that is going to drive you insane don't weigh daily

Whatever time and situation will be consistent for you. I have regular bathroom activities in the morning, so I weigh myself after them, but before I really start with my morning to-do list (dressing, making lunches for the day, etc.).
