Here is the challenge, be consistent, accountable, and transparent. Show up for each other.

For good support there is an MFP Weekly Weigh Ins group.

https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/118368-weekly-weigh-in-group

For everyone to do a weekly weigh in as part of their weight loss/weight gain/weight maintenance journey.

Frequently Asked Questions?:

Q How does it work?

A Each week down in "Discussions" there is a new weekly thread, post your details in each week and then we will track the results and post up a progress post at the end of each month
(Here is this week's: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10902409/weigh-ins-week-commencing-mon-30th-october )

Q What do the abbreviations people are using in the weight loss threads mean?

A SW: Start Weight; GW: Goal Weight; LW: Last Week; TW: This Week; OL: Overall Loss

Q Do I have to weigh in every week?

A No you don't - I keep the information in a spreadsheet, so if you're away or you fall off the wagon for a little while your details will still be there, they just won't be used in the stats if you've not weighed in with us during the current month.

Q Do I have to post all the information that everyone else does?

A No you can just post your current weight if that's what you are comfortable with, the other figures are just more helpful for the progress stats.

Q When is the best time to weigh?

A It is more consistent if you weight first thing in the morning, before you've eaten and after you've used the bathroom. Day of the week is your own preference. If like myself, you like to indulge a little on the weekend, it's probably better to weigh in Weds-Fri sometime so that you get a better sense of what you weigh once any water retention has passed.
