How often do you weigh in??

I used to weigh more often, but I found it was demotivating, not motivating, to see small changes as opposed to a 1-4 pound movement once a week.

It really drives my workout on my two days before I weigh in as well. I know I can only get on it once a week, so I really want that number to be good.

Some people like weighing in everyday, but I found it anti-climatic (although I understand the urge).

Yeah! That's what I wanted to say, but I just didn't know how to put it! :happy: I like to see that BIG number rather than small ones, too! And I also work a lot harder the two to three days leading up to my weigh in day. I do like the idea of weighing more than once a week but only recording my weight on one day like others have said.

I'm a chronic weight checker too and I've been weighing in at the gym which has a digital scale that is down to the ounce! I need a new scale at home b/c I no longer like the "non digital" ones.

I figure, what the heck, I might as well keep in mind what's happening and the daily victories mean a lot to me. I also record the weight daily and I've been lucky that so far I've only had to record lower numbers each time!

I weigh every morning first thing but only will record on Fridays. I need the motivation or on the other hand, the realization that I am not doing too good.

once in the morning. Naked.

I typically weigh myself every morning (I know horrible habit) but I do my official weigh-in on Saturdays.

Every day after I pee.

I like to see my change day to day, and look back on why I may have gained and try to change it (like too many carbs, not drinking a lot of water, etc.)

I weigh everyday in the mornings as well but I only record my weight on MFP once a week. Your weight can fluctuate a few pounds in a day so as long as you don't get too hung up on the number, I say go for it. It helps to keep me accountable!
