    your weight will always be fluctuating some do to lots of causes, most women tend to gain a little water weight during their period. Weigh if you want, if it will make you discouraged to see that number go up then don't.

    I do it, but that is so I just keep a schedule. I may not log it that week, but I do to keep me in check. With that being said, it doesn't discourage me or cause negative feelings. Just a nice quick weight to keep a routine going.

    I am.....but I keep telling myself there's no freakin way I've gained 5 lbs in a week, this is water weight and it should be gone by this weekend. My theory is that if I weigh daily and record it - I like an app called Happy Scale, then I won't freak out so much the next time I randomly gain 2 lbs overnight after a not bad day. My weight doesn't usually fluctuate much at all so it's been a rather distressing week.

    I never weigh myself at all but I would bother during that time of month, especially the week before. Most women are bloated are retaining water

    I'm menopausal. I weigh every day.

    I weigh myself every Saturday or Sunday, and if that falls on my cycle then I will. It's gonna fluctuate regardless, and it'll even out if it comes out a little higher during that time period.

    Whatever you feel comfortable with. I use a trend weight app to sort through the noise, but I also don't see a lot of fluctuations based on hormones.
