    I typically weigh myself every morning unless I do not have access to a scale(on vacation or something like that).

    I weigh myself every day, but I can cope with fluctuations - not everyone can.

    This. I weigh myself everyday because I use a spreadsheet to track that and my total calories eaten each day. This gives me my average true calorie expenditure, and I don't have to rely on calculators that really are only best guesses.

    It's easier now in maintenance than it was while I was actively trying to lose weight. I now know a +/- 3 pound fluctuation is normal for me. If your head gets messed up with seeing the scale stop moving or go up instead of continually going down, then I suggest weekly or monthly weigh-ins. Be sure you're taking measurements and progress pictures, too, because sometimes the scale may seem stuck, but changes are happening anyway. Best of luck!

    Check the scales every morning (helps me keep on track) but officially log in on a Friday morning.

    For me, I find I get a more accurate picture. I can also assess whether a meal out means a temporary or permanent gain and decide whether I want to go back to that restaurant or not! ;)

    Exactly This :D
