    Does anyone else feel like weighing in daily helps them stay on track better than weekly?? I know it's "a big no no" but I feel like I am more accountable if I do it that way.

    Absolutely I agree!!
    There are some people however that can't deal with it daily and feel like they are failing if they "gain" over night. So I don't reccomend it for everyone, but for me, yup. Everyday, same time in the morning and same time at night.

    Now that I'm reading all ur responses, I'm glad I'm not the only one that weighs everyday/every couple days. lol. I just can't seem to wait a week to weigh myself. I might see if I move it from the bathroom if that will help. I usually weigh in the mornings after I go to the bathroom but I feel weird weighing myself in front of my fiance so maybe if it's in our bedroom I'll weigh in less. I don't know but I'm still happy to see I'm not the only one haha. :)

    Wednesday morning after I poop...... If I miss that window, try it again the next Wednesday. I think most people check their weight way too often. Its too easy to get stressed out of a pound and then eat less and cause a bigger problem. Got to have my protein!

    Its just a number anyway. So for me, that's such a smart part of it all, that it hardly has any meaning.

    I weigh in daily. I'm trying to figure out, by looking at the monthly trend, where my peaks and valleys are so that I don't get demotivated on off days.

    I weigh in once a week officially - Fridays! Sometimes I think I am doing really well and other times when I think my choices might be affecting me negatively I will do an unofficial weight. Before our employee health updated and purchased the digital scale, I liked the old fashioned slide the weights scale. I would set it at my last weigh in weight and I would know my status based upon which way I would have to shift the weights. Without seeing a number, I didn't experience the fluctuation panic that happens periodically with the digital. Regardless, I choose the same time each Friday, before breakfast this is my constant.

    I weigh several times during the day, with the final being right before I go to bed. My logged weight is taken every morning.

    I'm also someone that likes to see the trends. I can handle the fluctuations; as long as the graph is primarily heading SE, I'm figure I'm doing fine.

    Once, I started getting serious about keeping the weight off. I began to weight myself every morning. I already lost 15 pounds in total prior to me joining this sight.

    I weigh everyday, but I am trying to weigh myself every few days. My weight fluctuates a little bit and it frustrates me. I really should weigh once a week.

    I weigh myself every Friday. It's tempting to weigh myself everyday, but as someone who used to eat as few calories as possible, weigh myself about 3 times a day, and freak out, this is just better for me. It helps me to keep perspective :).

    I weigh myself daily, but unless I have lost weight and it has stayed there for a few days, I don't log it.

    I weigh in daily. The fluctuations no longer bother me, and it keeps me accountable. Like if I see a spike in weight ( which I do) I can look back and think what could have caused it. Was it because I ate a lot of salt? Did I drink that day? I question my choices of food. Most of the time I just ate to much salt. Which I do eat a lot, Mexican candy. I love lucas and that has a lot of salt in it.

    Everyone is different. If it feels right for you, do it.

    I also weigh in once a week. I found that weighing myself daily discouraged me.Once I make my goal weight, I will probably weigh in daily. If it is up a pound or two, I'll cool it for that day.
