That's how often I weigh myself. I used to weigh myself every day but it got to be a bit frustrating. Then the batteries on my scale died and I didn't replace them for a month.... I found that not obsessing helped haha! Once a week, at the same time, under the same circumstances (nekkid vs un-nekkid) and you'll have an accurate guage.0

I try to stick to just once a week but that darn cute Wii Fit Board gets all sad if you don't do a daily body test (essentially a weigh-in)...I find when I weigh myself every day I get a little disheartened as the weight does fluctuate daily so once a week is definitely better in my opinion....or every 4 days as I usually can't wait that long!0

Every morning. I dont see the problem with this as long as you understand there will be day-to-day flucuations0

The little Wii Fit board is very cute and kind of persuasive lol
I weigh myself every day but I know that my weight will fluctuate and I don't worry about it. I only log my weight when it drops lower than it's been before. For most people I would recommend once a week.0 -
Every morning.0

I weigh myself every morning. That way I don't get too far off track if/when I overindulge.0

The scale is my friend. I hop on that thing like a surfer hops on their surfboard. We ride the waves toward smaller numbers together, enjoying the warm summer breeze~0

A few times a week. But I only log it on here if I have actually lost a pound. I'm attempting to lose 1/2 lb a week so it's slow going. If I start to get frustrated, then I take a break from it.0

To answer the question I weigh myself every morning0

I am only weighing in once a month. In previous attempts I would obsess about the scale, and let it dictate how my day was going to go. Nope, I am not doing that anymore.
I have a lot of weight to lose, so I am confident that if I am doing all the right things, the weight will come off. I want to focus on exercise. Measurements. Getting all my fruits and veggies in. Different goals than just weight.0 -
Every morning, right after peeing (TMI??). That way I know its at the same time of day, same clothes (essentially....not many ), and under the same conditions (just woke up, haven't eaten/drank anything). Yes, its the "lightest" time of the day, but that's okay by me0

Every morning before coffee that seems to be the best baseline for me.0

every morning before my coffee0
-
once every two weeks.
edit: in the morning after having gone to the bathroom and before breakfast0 -
I try to weigh once a week and do my measurements about every other week :happy: :happy:0

Honestly, I know I shouldn't but I do it daily. ALTHOUGH, I only really seriously pay attention to what the scale says about once a week if that makes any sense at all. LoL0
