    Friday morning only. The up and down of weighing daily would drive me nuts.

    I told myself when I started I'd weigh once a month, but my scale is in my bathroom so I can never resist so I step on first thing every morning.

    Every day, first thing before using the bathroom. I splurged on the Fitbit Aria, so I often don't even bother to look at the scale. It makes it almost like a video game for me whenever I do finally look at the weight on the website. Sometimes it looks like a bit of a mountain range. :)
    I only enter it here at MFP on Mondays though, and I round to the nearest pound.

    Every day, if I'm losing; every few days if I stall.

    Every Sunday morning. The rest of the time, the scale stays in the bathroom, unused.

    It would drive me absolutely nutso to see +0.2 on Monday morning, -0.6 Monday afternoon, +.11 Tuesday morning, lather, rinse, repeat

    ugh
    :sick:

    Fun with graphs! This is why I said it was like a videogame for me.

    Last 30 days:

    Since February when I got serious:

    Some of the jumps are from switching to a different scale.

    Since I topped out:

    I wasn't even weighing every week last year.

    Please note that 290 is a waypoint, not a final destination. See my profile for further details.

    I wish. The fitbit graphs are fairly weak and data export leave much to be desired.

    Right now while it is so hot, I weigh every morning, then before I run and again after so I can make sure I drink enough water after a workout.

    Daily, in the morning after a wee and before I eat.

    I weigh a few times a day, but I also have a cheap, crappy scale as opposed to a really precise one. I know I should be focusing on what I'm eating instead, but I get antsy about it.

    I weigh myself religiously every morning. I don't always record it....but it helps me keep in check and to realize that today I may need to be more mindful of my water intake, etc.

    Every single day, in the morning after going potty. That's "my" weight, the only one I care about. When I was at my most psychotic, I was doing it 3 times a day, writing it down every time. But I did break that habit once I hit my goal weight.

    Every two months or so. Seeing the numbers drop dramatically from the last time I weighed myself is a huge motivator for me. If I were weighing myself every week I'd get discouraged, I think.
