how often do you weigh yourself?

Ambo00

I am throwing this out there just to see what everyone does. I like to weigh myself first thing every morning. Even if I only lose a tenth of a pound. It still makes me feel good. Anyone else?

I weigh myself everyday first thing in the morning but I only log in on Friday's. It helps keep me in check, usually a 1 lb gain is just water retention so I make sure to drink more water taht day. It seems to work. :happy:

I weigh myself first thing in the morning after using the washroom. I currently weigh twice a week (Mondays for a challenge from a different site, Tuesdays for my personal weigh). I used to weigh daily, but I found the up and down that occurs with our bodies just really made it hard.

Oops, double post. :P

1st thing in the morning! But I do only "check-in" my weight weekly. When I'm feeling REALLY skinny in the middle of the day, I cannot resist stepping on the scale but it means nothing. Sometimes it is less, sometimes it is more.

Every Friday morning, 6.30am, after going to the bathroom and before breakfast.

Every morning.

I really should start tracking it...

Every Monday night at the gym.

Every morning as soon as I get up. This is not the idea way but it keeps me motivated. I only log if I lose a half pound or more!

Everyday.

Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. I do occasionally weigh other days, but I really try to keep it to those 3 other wise I find myself getting overly obsessive.

I log weights on Monday

I use to never weigh myself because the slight fluctuation irritated me and had me throwing in the towel numerous times. My husband gave me a great idea that has helped me....

I weigh myself in the morning when I get up then again in the evening just before bed. This lets me know what I ate during the day that could have contributed to a huge weight gain. I go by the numbers in the AM as actual weight loss or gain.

I too weigh every morning ,,,I like to know when I'm up or down and if I'm up I work that much harder

i try to weigh myself at least once a week, either on a saturday or a sunday (switching sometimes). this week i'll weigh myself on saturday.

Every morning. I only start to panic if I'm 3 above goal. I've lost 200 pounds and fear it will all come back again so +3 is my limit.

I only weigh myself once a week or else I'll get obsessed with the numbers on the scale. I'm looking more for wearing smaller pants, not a smaller number.

First thing Friday morning, after using the bathroom, nekkid. Best way! lol

Everyday first thing in the morning also, helps to keep me on track.

I do the same thing, first thing in the morning, nekkid, after using the washroom and before breakfast. Did anyone else notice that not one male responded to this topic?

x2s a week. Once the day after my rest days in the morning because its generally higher after rest/recovery days and once at the end of the work out week to give me the most accurate end week result.

O.K. I know my first answer was probably the smart answer, the mature answer, the proper answer.

But after I commented this, I have learned what I actually do: I weigh myself at least twice a day ESPECIALLY if I'm feeling extra skinny. I'm so excited that I feel so good that I cannot wait to see the scale show a pound lost and as soon as it does, I'm going to log it! I still just measure myself every Monday though - I'm not THAT obsessed!

I spent the past week weighing in every day trying to develop a habit that will help me when it's maintenance time, and I think I'm just developing a form of raging insanity. I'm going to dial it back to once or twice a week again. I know fluctuations happen, and I thought I was prepared for them, but it happens I'm also stalled out at 216 (only for a week so far, but very depressing!) and so I just don't have a sense of humor about the scale right now!
