Good Morning/Afternoon MFPers,

I have a quick question.

This morning I have officially lost 20lbs (woot, woot) and my weekly weigh in day is on Wednesdays. Here is my question, if you have a good weight loss and one of significance, do you record it even if it is not your official weigh in day or just wait it out and try to maintain and/or lose more?

Thank you much!

    I do not, because I know that body weight fluctuates daily, and that there is a chance that in a few days on my actual weigh-in day it will be slightly higher and I will be disappointed if I have to record a gain.

    But congratulations! That doesn't take away from what you've achieved!

    I agree with Iknowsaur. As tempting as it is, its best to wait. I was recording every 3-4 days last month and my chart has so many ups and downs. I got pretty stressed. 4-5 weigh ins a month is more reflective of your overall success.

    Congratulations! I love reading about people being so successful on here!
