How often should I take measurements??

OMG_Twinkies

I have stopped weighing myself every day, instead opting for once a week, but I want to take measurements too. Once a week seems like it would be too much. How often should I be taking progress measurements? How often do you guys take your measurements?

I never take measurements I just let my clothes tell me..If you want to I would say every couple weeks

Mine are taken after every set of 12 sessions with my trainer. Usually averages every two months. It seems to be giving me a good idea on my progress!

Im measuring about every four weeks.

I do mine once on the same date of every month. No particular reason other than I don't wanna overdo it (there was a time I'd measure 8-12 times a day) and I want to have a set day so I behave.

For the sake of consistency and sanity, I wouldn't measure any more frequently than once every 2 weeks.

I measure around the first of the month. We have a trainer here at the gym I go to..and I get her to measure me. I feel like it is more accurate since someone else is doing it and has the knowledge of how to do it accurately.

I would say once a month is plenty but like Kalebsmammy said, your clothes will tell you how youre doing!! I tend to pay attention to how I feel rather than what I weigh or measure!!

I measure and weigh once a month.

I recorded my weight and measurements once a week. It won't go down nearly as much as if you measure less, but I liked seeing the progress week to week in the small increments.

Though I also weigh every day (but only record once a week). The daily fluctuations don't bother me at all.

I weigh myself weekly, but take measurements on the 1st of every month.

I only do it about once a month... For me anyway the changes were too subtle doing it any sooner. I suppose it depends on how weight you have to lose though - I'm super close to goal so my progress is sllloooowwww goin.

I measure every month, you'd be surprised to see how many inches you can lose in a month.
