Do you weigh yourself every day?

I do. But I've been told that you're supposed to weigh yourself once a week.
I find the daily check points motivate me.

I did, but don't like stressing about every 10th of a pound every day. I kind of like the lead-up to weekly weigh in day. I know I've lost some. I can tell. but am eager to find out how much.0

I do but I try not too. I try to hold out until sunday night but it doesn't always work. but I say hey whatever works for you.0

Oh, no way! Once a week with spot checks if I want. Daily would drive me neurotic...0

I have always been told
Weigh yourself once a week same time same day before dressing.
Remember that once a month you may not have a loss
Daily sounds a little toooo???
When I started doing that I threw away the scales (and look what happened).
My Admin Assistant weighs herself daily and is in her late 50's trim & gorgeous0 -
I do every morning. It is nothing to be up or down 5/6 lbs day to day so I go by measurements more than the scale.0

Yep and I write it down too (but only record on here every week or two) , I like seeing numbers and I can pretty much predict what my weight will be the next day. I'm pretty steady so far with the weight loss.0

I weigh myself daily in the morning after relieving myself but before consuming anything, and without clothes. That gives me a good benchmark where I'm not up on weight from food consumed during the day or whatever. I also use a trending tracker (the hacker's diet website has a great one) which shows the trendline of my weight loss, and it's nicer and more accurate if I give it daily weigh-ins.
Really, it's what works best for you. If daily weigh ins are best for you, go for it, just do it at the same time every day.0 -
I don't. I weigh once a week as a rule and might hop on every so often in between, but only log my weigh in once a week.0

No, only once a week. Same day, same time.0
-
I do that way if I find that the weight is going up I know to get back on track or do more exercise in. I only log it once a week, every Friday.0

Every morning and night. I am OCD and like constantly knowing what it is. Also, I have noticed most mornings I am 2lbs less than what I was the previous night.
Overkill, probably, but I have done this for years and can not cut the habit.0 -
I weigh in daily at the same time right after i get up and before i get dressed. Weight fluctuates like crazy daily, but i like to have it in my chart so i can see the overall trend of my weight progression over longer periods of time.0

I do it once a week. When i started, i'd hop on it everyday! big mistake cause if it wasnt what i wanted, id be mad. now i am used to it.0

I weigh myself multiple times a day. It helps to keep me motivated. However, I don't stress out over the variations that I see.0
-
I weigh myself 3 times every morning. I weigh, move the scale, & repeat. If I see a loss, I need to be sure that it's real.0
-
I do, i know your not supposed to, but its good for me lets me know where I am. I dont freak out over the numbers , just gives me a base line. I only record on here once a week0

I admit, I weigh myself every morning. I like to track how what I ate and how I exercised affects my weight. High sodium days makes me gain. Also, workouts that make my legs hurt also make me gain. But these gains are temporary, and I like to see that...0

I weigh myself several times a day just to see how my weight fluctuates throughout the day...I just find it interesting? I don't know..either way I'm not swayed by any daily "losses" or "gains" I know how many calories it actually takes to lose 1lb of fat so the scale doesn't really motivate or bum me out...I just go by how my clothes fit me.0

I pretty much do daily. But just once in the morning when I first get up.0
