How often do you weigh yourself?

I was wondering how often everyone weighs themselves? I know some people that do it everyday and some that do it once a month. I tend to lose motivation if I don't weigh myself everyday.

I weigh myself everyday or every other day. Keeps me accountable. If I see the number going up I know I need to kick my butt in gear and exercise and eat better. If Its going down I know I need to keep doing what I'm doing. But thats just how it works with me!0

I weigh every morning and hate it when i can't. The fluctuations keep me on track and I find that I get a little lost without the daily accountability.0
-
EVERY day!! usually when i first get up, before eating or drinking anything ;o0
-
I weigh myself every Friday morning and post a progress photo on my Facebook weight loss album and measure myself the last Friday of the month. :P0

The scale and I are not friends. Seems like no matter what it says (and I'm not kidding, it could even be an awesome #), I feel like it isn't enough and it just upsets me. I stay off of it as much as possible now.
I am going to continue to modify my behavior no matter what the scale says, no matter how slow or quick I lose weight, no matter what. Short term behavior changes will not allow me to keep the weight off.
I prefer to measure my success by means other than the scale as well. Measurements and endurance are huge indicators of how well I'm doing.0 -
I weigh every day to stay accountable but only track on fridays and monday.0

I avoid the scales at all cost. About the only time I weigh is when I have to, like at the Dr.'s office.0
-
Several times a week.0
-
Every day now that I'm at the point where I don't freak out about normal weight fluctuations. It took me a while to get there I must admit!0
-
Every day, however with strength training I am training myself not to do that because it is not an accurate representation of my progress and just frustrates me.0

Weekly. Usually on Mondays. Keeps me accountable over the weekend.0
-
Once a month0
-
I count my weigh in on Sunday as soon as I wake up as my "official" weight, but I jump on the scale almost every day just to see how things are going...0
-
Daily. I used to log only 1x per week, but I find it more motivating to log daily also. But, because I know it fluctuates, I didn't want everyone to congratulate me every time I had a tiny loss, so I turned off the alerts that tell everyone when I've lost weight since my last weigh in.0
-
Weekly, roughly, either Monday or Tuesday.0
-
Every morning. If it stays the same for a week i'll change it in mfp.0
-
Once a week, unless it's tom, then I skip a week and a half.
Measurements no more then every 2weeks.0 -
I weigh everyday, keeps me accountable) but only record changes (UP or DOWN)..0
-
Every day as soon as I wake up. I don't count when it goes up a little, I just track it when it goes down. But it lets me know if I need to eat lighter or get some more exercise.0

I weigh every morning. I believe it keeps me going also helps me know if I should eat a smaller meal. or if I am doing great then I can have a little extra treat.0
