    I do every morning. Partially out of habit but it does help to learn more about how certain foods or too little water or travel...etc will make a difference. I don't get worried about the fluctuation day to day since it can go up or down a few pounds overnight but I like to see the number each morning regardless. Helps me stay accountable and grounds me a bit. I don't weigh myself when I'm traveling or on vacation if I'm away. I only record my weight once a week.

    yes - every morning - and sometimes more than once !!! I don't freak out over it - but it's fun to watch - especially now that I'm tracking everything - I can see trends especially with sodium intake and water retention...
    Also weigh myself at night too... also not freaking out but seriously blown away sometimes by the difference...
    Like today - 7.5 lbs from this morning to after dinner... I think that is my all time most - but it can easily fluctuate 5 lbs from morning to night...
    It will be strange in a couple of weeks when I'm on vacation and won't be able to weigh myself...

    I weigh myself on the Aria wifi scale daily. I don't stress about the gains and losses, but just watch the trends. (I use trendweight.com which syncs with my MFP data.) Super interesting,

    Hopefully I don't annoy my friends list too much on here since it auto syncs daily.

    Yes I do but I do not obsess about minor fluctuations, it helps me to stay accountable.

    I do. And I log it every day. I mainly started so I could track daily fluctuations. Now I can look back and remind myself that it's very normal, and not get stressed every time I "gain" 2 pounds. I've been able to see exactly how my lady cycle, certain foods, or exercise habits are affecting the scale, due to water retention, or whatever.

    yes, as it is the most convenient time to be nekkid. however, my officially logged weigh-ins are done on Tuesdays (clothed) at the doctor's office, where they also track my weight loss progress

    Morning and night. It gives me an idea of how what I ate for the day impacted the numbers. I only log when I get a new low number.

    I weigh first thing every morning, but that is so I can record the weight on my phone app. I love to see the squiggly line heading downwards. LOL!

    But I only record on MFP on Mondays.

    Yep, every morning. The scale is on the way to the shower. Some days start happier than others.

    I don't stress (or get excited) about daily changes, but watch the trends, and I have an "official" weigh-in once a week on Fridays.

    This^^...I find that it keeps me mindful, and I'm less likely to slack off on working out or eat over my calories/macros.

    I check too often. It seems like the numbers I get are always the same and I never loose. Just bounce around. But then I check my logs and realize I'm on track and loosing.

    This week is the first week that I have only lost 1 pound. But its been a total of 19 lbs over 1.5 months to date. So I figure its time I probably should start hitting the gym again to help keep it up :-)

    I get my official measurement every Friday at Curves. That is the weight I track. If I feel like I am bloated or constipated, I will weigh myself to check and if I am up, treat the problem. I also belong to TOPS. I get weighed there on Monday. I do not track this, as it is a different scale and sometimes the numbers are off.

    Yes! I can't help it. But I officially weigh in once a week. But it's nice to wake up and see that the previous morning's weight wasn't completely wrong.

    I do. I like high resolution data hehe. I just make sure I don't freak out if the number goes up from one day to the next. How ever if the number keeps going up 3 days in a row then I know I need to analyse my habits.

    ^This!
