How long do you wait before you log a loss???!!!

Hello all.

I wondered how long you all wait until you log a weight loss? Last month I logged a loss after a couple of days then yoyoed crazily for a couple of weeks. Now I have lost a further couple of pounds but might wait a few days before I log it incase I go up and down again!! What works for you? Do you grab the moment and log as soon as you notice a loss, or do you wait to see if it stays down for a few days and then log?

Just interested! Have a nice day everyone!

I log a loss immediately, but log a gain only if it sticks around for longer than three days. I realize water weight is going to happen and don't feel like logging gains that are probably water.

Once every 2-3 weeks, my weight loss is VERY up and down, and I just can't bring myself to log a gain after logging a loss

Lol! I 'grab the moment' on the way down and 'let's wait a while and see' when it goes the other way!!

:drinker:

I weigh once a week, and whatever it is, it is, so I log it.

I log on the same day each week. I also weigh the same time everyday. This way, it is always consistent. I have belonged to another program before and I had to weigh in once a week. I always wore the same clothes so it would be as accurate as possible.

Good luck!! This program is working well for me so far....even though it's only been a short time.

I log in every change, up or down... But it is only because of my Wii Fit game. I have logged into it 92 days in a row and now want to see how many days in a row I can do it! Once I go away for a night or two I am sure I will be done with the weekly weigh ins. They do kill me sometimes, those and and down .5...

I log every day, gain or loss.

me too...although most of my buddies on MFP have suggested I stop doing that because I can get a bit neurotic about it...LOL...

I've been weighing myself *almost* every morning (well, on days I think to do it!), but I've only been logging new lows. I figure the lowest weight is probably right, I doubt I was filled with helium while I slept!

I weigh once a week EVERY week, same time, same clothes, log the loss or gain, but not a "same".
I personally weigh every Sunday when I get up, then log it as and when I get the time in that day lol.
