    I weigh-in every other day or so but "officially" once a week usually on the same day each week. As to day & time I do it in the morning. It is recommended to do the same day/time so you have an accurate measurement specific to you. Given that weight can fluctuate differently at different times of the day pick a time that works for you whether its morning, afternoon or night. As with diet and exercise, consistency is the key!

    I weigh daily, but only put in the lower amount when I've been the one below it for two days. E.g My MFP weight is currently 14st 4lbs, but I'm going to wait until I've been 14st 2lbs for two days before I put in 14st 3lbs. This is like a safety net to me, in case my weight goes back up a pound - because I'll still be accurate on MFP. Furthermore it's motivation... 'I can't have that cupcake because I was 14st 2lbs yesterday and if I can stay the same tomorrow then I get to put my weight as 14st 3lbs!' :laugh:
