hi everyone, i have been only weighing myself once a month the same time and date, well as close as i can get with either the 1st or 2nd of every month only. i also do my measurements at this time.

how often do you weigh yourself?or do measurements if you do? thanks!

    Every single morning, but I only count it as a weight loss if I get roughly the same result 3 days in a row (to the nearest pound). I find my weight fluctuates so much that if I only weighed myself once a month I would never know if it was an accurate reading.

    The more the number goes down....the more often =p That is just for encouragement though.. I've never actually had the weight come off! I was doing it on Fridays, a weigh in, but I'm switching to Monday mornings because that is day 1 of the week.. =) Do it 2nd thing in the morning.. potty first, weigh 2nd then go eat something. That is how you get your 'truest' weight. =)

    I weigh myself every dy. I feel this helps me keep my sodium intake on track. That extra slice of pizza may have me under on calories, but way over on salt.

    Seldom, maybe once every couple of months. The scale is only a number, how I feel in my clothes is the real test for me.

    I have one pair of pants I really love and last year I couldn't close them. Now I can and they feel comfortable and that's the best result for me.

    If I weigh myself too often, I become obsessed with numbers, the number I am, the number I want to be, the number I need to lose. I much prefer seeing the results in the clothes I wear.

    I look at each season as the new phase. Three months do this! Take start weight and measurements. Then the next season starts, with new weather, sports, challenges, preferences- start over! new phase! new weight/measurements!

    Every. Freaking. Day.

    Sometimes more than once a day if I don't like the first results.
