When do you weigh yourself?

I weigh most mornings before eating or drinking and after bathroom duties have been sorted. I only record my weight when it drops as my scales only show whole lbs and because I lose less than that a week it might say the same reading for 2 or 3 weeks. Then suddenly drop. I try not to be too obsessive about the reading, as long as I get at least 1 lb drop every couple of weeks I am happy.

I always blame water when it show higher . :drinker:

I weigh myself every morning after I wake up! Its just an accountability thing for me...Keeps me in check , and tbh, has worked! I haven't gained any weight, always maintained for a bit or lost weight!

Once every week or two, in the morning. Daily fluctuations in weight are so typical that I gave up on daily checkins with the scale. Also, I try to weigh myself wearing the same kind of clothes, or lack of them. If I weigh with clothes on, then it's not quite accurate. If naked, then it's the real deal.

I'm of the belief you should weigh yourself at night after the day as this is your true weight.

I wouldn't say it is your true weight, Its you + food + water and would change depending on how much/little you drank and ate that day. Not very accurate.

Saying that, I weigh Thursday afternoons when I get home from work (it's my half day)

I was always told, that as a female, to weigh myself the same day and time once a week and not to do it on a menstrating week (on the same scale). My personal trainer instructed me of this. He suggested also to do it before I get my day going on (not having eaten or drank anything). So I weigh in usually on Tuesdays in the morning before I eat or drink anything. Then sometimes I do it through the week for encouragement when I'm struggling but still following the guidelines given!!:bigsmile:

I'm doing a workout with 3 phases (ChaLEAN Extreme), I typically weight myself in the middle and end of each phase, in the morning after I've given my body a few minutes to stretch out and I've used the bathroom. Weighting yourself can become dangerous or can be disappointing resulting in lack of motivation if you aren't seeing the results you want.

I weigh each and every morning! I am not obsessed with losing weight! I use the scale as a tool to keep me on track , just as a person with high blood pressure uses a blood pressure monitor or the diabetic uses the glucose monitor.

Wishing you continued success in your journey to a healthier you!:)

On a Saturday morning, first thing after I have been to the loo and before I eat or drink. More to the point it is only once a week, as keeping a consistent period between weigh-ins is the only way to make comparisons with one week over the next.

Weighing at the end of the day includes all you have eaten and drunk - if you weigh in the morning, this is when you have fasted overnight.

However, if you DO weigh in the evenings, always weigh the same day, the same time of day - what matters is consistency.

Don't weigh every day, nor several times a day - your weight naturally fluctuates all day, so once a week is enough to get good consistent results. If you are doing more, especially several times per day, then that is bordering on obsessive compulsive disorder!

I weigh myself in the morning, I feel that is my true weight. When I was doing weight watchers, I would fast for 4 or 5 hours to try and get the best reading on the scale. But I do limit it to once a week - usually Saturday or Sunday.

My weigh-ins are Thursdays at lunch (a Weight Watchers @Work program), however I do look at my home scale each morning after I get-up, put the dog out then use the bathroom (he needs it first). The weekly weigh-in is the only one I actually track here -there are too many daily fluctuations.
