Weigh In Questions!

How often do you weigh yourself & how often do you update your weight tracker? I'm sure this will probably be different for everyone. Just curious to see what everyone has to say about this.

I weight myself daily, but I only record in my tracker once a week.

I know some people say daily weighing isn't good, but it helps me be aware of the natural ups and downs. I'm at a age (over 50) where my weight loss path isn't linear, sometimes it's two steps forward and one step back, even though I'm perfectly on program.

I usually weigh myself every sunday, but I am starting a new 7 week challenge and will be weighing myself every friday.

i weigh daily and track whenever there is a loss....also if there is a gain for more than 3-4 days i track that also.

I've been struggling with a plateau, so I've been weighing myself every morning just to see what foods are affecting my weight--but usually every Sunday morning is when I log.

I weigh every morning before and after workouts, but I only record on Sundays.

I decided I'm not going to weigh my self until mid of July. I really don't like to be disappointed and i don't like my numbers going up and down. I know how much I weigh which is 190lbs and i have been doing this for the past weeks and I'm really going to keep going, it's like an extra goal and an extra challenge for me... MFP is great at all of the tools it provides so I'm confident i will see results, i already do in my clothing and the way i feel. but that's just me..feel free anyone to add me as a friend I'm new to the site.

I weigh daily but only log once a week on Saturday mornings.

I weigh myself daily - I like to see the day to day trending, especially now in the early days of my weight loss. I take the successes as a good thing, and the gains as a reminder to keep at it and keep the goal in sight. That said, if I miss a weigh in, it's not a big deal to me. I've also started tracking my other measurements (neck, hips, waist), though I will likely be checking those evry few weeks or monthly.

I weigh daily and log when I lose or if I've gained and it's stayed on for a few days

I weigh in every single morning (after I use the ladies room!) but only record it on Fridays!
I find I'm more accountable for my actions when I see the number everyday go up or down!


But I use an app on my phone that lets you record your weight daily and it shows you how much it goes up and down during a week! it is pretty cool to see the differences and see the changes from week to week.
