I weigh daily but only record my weight if its lower than the number I had before. Never if its higher :bigsmile:
^^^same here!0 -
I have pretty good system. I weigh myself every morning. If I gained any amount or lose amount I enter it half a pound up or down because you realistically are not going to gain or lose one or more pounds in a day. This way I do not have wild fluctuations where they do not exist. Also if the graph shows a constant decrease I know it isn't an anomoly.0

I may weigh myself twice a week but only record once usually on Fridays. Saturday is my "cheat day" so I definitely weigh myself before then.0
-
I record it any time it goes down - even if it is a fraction of a pound. I never record it when it goes up because I know it's water, sodium, TOM, or whatever and not "real."0

I also keep my scale in another room. I weigh and record weekly unless I feel I've been out of control. I measure and record measurements every 4 weeks.0

I also weigh daily (sometimes twice). I log any time I get a record low. Down .2 from yesterday? Logged! But if I go up a bit, I wait until I have a new record low before logging again. So if I logged 146.2 today - which I did
, and tomorrow's weight is 147, then 146.5, then 146 even, I won't log again until the 146 even so I'm not recording the same pounds over and over again.
this is what i do as well.0 -
I weigh and measure every Tuesday morning before exercising or putting any thing in my mouth. Today I gained but down on measurements so still progress0
-
I only weigh every 2 weeks.
Tomorrow is the big day and I'm really nervous, the last 2 times I've only lost 2lbs each time. I've been doing a lot more exercise since then and am hoping for nearer 4lbs.0 -
I ONLY weigh myself once a week. because if not I really get hung up on the numbers. I have to be strict with myself or I allow the numbers to effect my mood. so even when I am feeling good and light, I won't weight unless it's my way day. I have been really struggling with diet soda too!!! I didn't drink it for years and then it crept back into my life, now I have quit it several times and then I keep drinking it again!!!0

Once every week or two. I find there is too much variation day to day and I find it discouraging if the numbers aren't going my way.0

I weigh myself daily but only record it once a week (at a WW meeting0

Once a week, on Mondays. I don't even own a scale at home, lol - I use the one in the fitness center at work0

morning of the 8th day from the previous weigh-in.
in the beginning it's hard to decipline myself to keep off the scale, when i was starting there were times when i step the scale almost every 2 hours... i know it's crazy0 -
I weigh daily but I only "count" one weigh in per week, which is Saturday morning.0
-
I too step on the scale every morning. I just have to do it. But i log it here once a week.0
-
I log any time I get a record low.
This.
And I do not log a weight in again until I hit a new one.
In the beginning, I was afraid the system would alert my friends of the increase, so I wouldn't log one. Then it became habit, even though I know it doesn't work that way. :laugh:0 -
I only weigh myself once a week. I try not to get obessed about it.0
-
i record every time i see a loss! i typically fluctuate up about a pound next time i weigh myself, but i like to see the "pounds lost" thing on here change. it motivates me a little more0
