How often do you weigh yourself?

As I'm sure many of you find, I find it almost impossible not to peek. So I changed the way I weigh in to go with the flow. I get on the scale most mornings when I get out of the shower. I have a wi-fi scale that records the weight. There is a free site, trendweight, that records the 'Data' (can sync to fitbit site if you have). *I do not work for and am not promoting this site, heh.

TrendWeight uses that weight data to form a staticial graph of weight over time. For me this works really well, I explain the bigger reason below. Rather than look at the actual weight for a day, I look at trendweight. I tend to platau often, usually for 5-10 days then lose a bit. Since the graphs and anaylsis use weight over a longer peroid of time (two week min) they are not really changed by the normal day to day weight changes, So I'm not bothered by them.

If I actually look at the 'Data' I can see that just in the last two weeks there was a period that if I had weighed in once a week I would have seen a .5 lb weight increase (would be bummer if only thing i was going on).

Also I was able to see a while back that my trend had gone from the nice 1.7-1.8lb per week loss trend was edging up 2.2,2.3,2.4 so I knew I was not eating enough of my replacement calaries.

*Reason I really like: This is great for Maintenace once you reach your goal (This is What we all hope for, right!). You don't have to weigh in everyday, but you should get on the scale some. You can see your weight trend over time and know if your starting to move out of your goal range without having to worry about what the scale says one day. If you start to move above your goal range, time to refocus a bit before things start to get out of hand.

Any thoughts or anyone else using?

Every Monday morning.

every time i am in my bathroom. but i only record it once a week.

Thank goodness I am not the only one.

I've been doing it every morning and night because I feel so curious and excited since I've finally started to lose a couple of pounds. I also do it every time I'm at the gym since their scale is more accurate. Maybe I'll hop on the once a week bandwagon, I don't want to become obsessed!

Twice a week but I peek in between sometimes which is not a good thing. I record it twice a week too. I have learned it is best to weight myself first thing when I get up in the morning for accuracy.

I was weighing daily but only recording it once a week, on Thursdays, but I found that if I was happy with the number on the scale on any particular day, I would end up eating more since I wasn't worried about maintaining my deficit. So now I'm just strictly once a week.

I used to weigh once a week... but... now I only weight once a month, maybe. I really don't know what I weigh right now. I'm okay with that. I think I'm mentally better off if I pay attention to other things- like my strength gains from lifting, my cardio health, my ability to hike and toss children around, and the way my clothes fit.

The scale is just a number. It tells me very little about who I am or how I'm doing health-wise.

Every morning, and sometimes in the evening - but I take the mornings reading as accurate. I panic if I don't know my weight.

I'm making the move to once a month. That way I focus more on fixing my behaviors and less on obsessing about a number. I really like to obsess about that stupid number, when it isn't what I want to focus on for the time being.

everyday, once in the morning after i wake up, after i visit the facilities and w/ no clothes, and record the number, haha
