Simple question. When do you weigh yourself?

Are you a scale addict like my and do so every morning and sometimes in the middle of the day? :blushing: Do you have a set schedule of once a week or every two weeks? Every other day?

Just curious. I need to stop hoppin' on it every day. :ohwell: haha

    Every Monday Morning as soon as I get up. Nekkid. That's my recordable day, but sometimes during the week I will check my progress. I just don't record it.

    First thing in the morning after using the restroom. I am trying to weigh myself only once a week, but it is so hard! My weigh in day will be Saturday (if my last workout was Thursday, as I read it was not good to weigh yourself the morning after you work out), or Sunday (if my last workout was Friday).

    It is so tempting to look during the week, but it gets disappointing due to fluctuations!

    Every single freaking day and twice a day. I have found it extremely helpful to be honest. Like for example, last week on Thursday I weighed in at 166lbs (which would have given me a +2lb loss for that week) but on my official weigh in day, Friday, BAM, I weighed 170lbs. TOM was around the corner so I knew what the culprit was. So far, I've been juggling between 169bs and 170lbs since Friday. TOM is visiting so it is reflecting on the scale. Had I weighed in only once a week and saw a 4lb weight gained, yeah, I would freaked the freak out!!! I went back to one month ago (I keep track of my daily weight entries since I started this journey) and surely enough I saw weight gain on the days prior to and during TOM.

    By the way, I am on my last day of TOM and surely enough when I got on the scale this morning it was down to 167lbs from being 170lbs all weekend. I was feeling really bloated and I still feel a little bloated so yeah, I hope to see good numbers come tomorrow or next when Aunt Flo has packed up her sh#t and left the house.

    I weigh myself every morning. I like to know where I am at and it helps me to stay on track. The period of time when I didn't weigh myself is when I gained the most weight.

    6:30 AM Wednesdays.

    I teach a 5:30 AM BodyPump class, I hate eating before this class so I wake up, put on my clothes, grab my coffee, teach my class, weigh myself, then eat as I get ready for work. This ensures that I am pretty consistent in my variables.

    Everyday makes me sad because you can't see a big difference or worst, it might have gone up, due to water retention or other factors. I get on the scale only on Fridays.

    I weigh every morning naked and after the bathroom, but I only take Fridays weight to log. I feel that I am more acountable if I see my weight everyday.

    morning intermittedly during the week, its not something i focus on b/c i am trying to build muscle & therefore i am surely going to gain weight but i dont wnt to be hard on myself. I do it before my 5am workout and before i shower of course, i am dry w/o clothes on.

    I check mine once or twice a week. Usually I weigh in on Thursday or Friday, to see how well I did during the week. Then again on Monday, to see how bad I was over the weekend. LOL

    Whenever I'm nekked through out the week and always on Friday Mornings. I just go into the bathroom when I'm in the middle of getting dressed for the day sometimes and I step on there. If it's lower than my current weight I'll track it on here, if it's more I'll drink more water and try not to eat so many carb and kcal heavy foods. I never weigh myself when I first get out of the shower, but most of the time I do it right before I get in the shower. :-) Every one is different. Find what works for you!
