    Every Friday morning. I wake up, use the potty wait like 10 min then weight myself.

    Weekly when I started out. Now bi weekly. It can ruin your day and discourage you sometimes to not see the numbers moving. Also take measurements. They are vastly more important.


    I agree with this comment. I weigh in on Sunday mornings

    Starting tomorrow - once a week because I've joined a few challenges - plus my personal trainer changed up my calorie intake pretty drastically from what I've been doing.

    But lately, there are times when t weigh myself everyday for a week and then not weigh in at all for a month. I've been mostly basing it on how tight my jeans are.

    I weigh when ever I feel like it, but I only track every other Sunday (except when I stopped logging for a bit, got back on track and wanted to know where I was at)

    I weigh in daily to see the pattern of fluctuations and it reminds me to drink water (I retain like crazy if I don't, so a 5 pound water weight gain will make me more conscious that day), but I only record once a week.

    ETA: I take measurements once a month.

    I'm going to be once a month, especially just starting out like I have. I'm still learning what foods do what and the things to stay away from.

    Will also be a good time to reward myself with Gym clothes etc. for the achievements I've made.

    When I first started out pretty much every day because I was impatient haha. Eventually I started weighing in once a week, and now that weight loss has slowed down for me I am weighing once a month as to not get discouraged. Taking measurements is a good idea, at least for me it's a good consolation to see inches lost if I didn't lose any weight for the month.

    I weigh in once a week, but I do skip it the week of my monthly because I know I'll be heavier due to bloating.

    I weigh every morning and also accept that somedays that means my weight will go up so I only pay attention to the trend of the last 30 days.

    At least in my case weighing in is very important. When the battery in my scale went dead and I was lazy about replacing it I gained an average of 2lbs a day. Even though I was counting calories I was paying as close attention to where those calories were coming from. It's taken me over 6 months and I'm still trying to get rid of the weight I gained during the dead battery days..
