    I weigh myself every Monday morning, in the nude, right after going potty!! Haven't noticed a weight shift during that time. Also I drink lots of water!

    Thank you every one for posting. I can gain in water weight 10 pounds in one day. So this is why I am wondering when it is my time if I should.

    I did weigh myself this week (I'm on now) but saw absolutely no change in the scale. Since I've been working my butt off lately, I attributed that to being on my period (women weigh a few pounds more during our time of the month) and the fact that I started a strenuous weight lifting program last week. I'm hoping to see the results of my work on the scale next week. Oh the wonderful world of womanhood!

    I can tell you that I have found that if I only weigh myself once every two weeks, then I feel more of an accomplishment when I see a bigger loss than one or two punds. And, that way you can make sure that you are NOT weighing yourself during your time. Hope this helps:)

    I would love to get to a point where I can do that. I only got myself to stick to once a day in the last few months. Its a sick obsession that really makes me spiral because the numbers fluctuate too much during the day. I have a friend who doesn't have a scale at home at all, she only weighs in once a week at the weight loss clinic she goes to.

    Yes, I weigh myself every monday, no matter what. If I'm on my period and I gain weight, it just pushes me to work harder.

    I skip that week. No sense in seeing a number that will upset me and may sabotage my diet :smile:

    I have only been here for 2 1/2 weeks, and weigh daily, I'm OBSESSED!!! But I can tell you that in the past 2 days, I have gained 4 lbs. I have pms and my boobs hurt like I am freaking pregnant!!! But I'm not, was fixed 11 years ago :O) I have severe PMDD and take medication for it, and it doesn't really help, but keeps my husband alive :O) I need to know what I weigh at all times... doesn't mean I change anything, just need to know!

    i weigh daily!! even when im on my period. its just an obsession i have with having to know how what i ate yesterday affected my weight today. even if it says you are 2 or 3 or even 10 pounds heavier just because of your time of the month don't let it get you down. if you are eating right and exercising during it you will notice even a pound difference from your weight before the bloating!
