I have read that you are really only suppose to weigh yourself like one a week. But i have been weighing everyday. But i am probably going to go to once a week.

I weigh daily but only record it on Mondays.

I weigh in every day (first thing in the morning), and have been doing this since I began my weight loss mission on May 9th. I record a loss of 1 whole pound or more. My scale keeps me informed and in check

I weigh daily - although I just started two days ago. Only Sunday morning 'counts'. I weight daily not so I can torture myself with what the number says, but to look for patterns. Is it always up on Wednesday? or maybe the day after I have dinner out? I just got a new scale and all I have to do is step on it, it does everything else for me.

I weighed in pretty quickly using the Doctors scales, took me a few weeks to find one that would go high enough for home use. Now I weigh in Every Friday and take measurements every 2 weeks. I am in a Friday weigh in group http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/8463-friday-weigh-in-s that reminds me to weigh in and be accountable for my results.

So the big problem with daily weigh ins, is that your bio rythem changes. Such as if you haven't pooped, or ate a little less or more the day before. Or for females, you're on your menstruation cycle (or some other hormonal response).

It fluxiates, and can be terrible disheartening then a boon almost roller coaster like.

My two cents, spend the extra dosh to get a good scale, and do it weekly. Measure monthly, it's a sure fire way to get a good read out if you're keeping a routine of (weekly/daily) workouts and good eating habits.

I weigh daily.

I find it is a nice tool to help my focus, and I look forward to it. But I really also try to remember it is just a number and not a true definition of my successes. My diabetes going in remission was far more important of a NSV to me than any number on the scale. My increased stamina for exercise is a big NSV. I am starting to be able to cross my legs again, another important NSV for me. These things all matter to me.

The scale is useful though. It lets me see a lot, ie, like my water weight fluctuations and patterns. I don't expect daily losses, and even accept the gains I see with water changes. As a whole, my weight is decreasing and I am fine with that. (I do get a bit annoyed if it doesn't move like last week it seemed stagnant. But them in the past two days I dropped almost 4 pounds. Who knows...LOL

I totally understand that many prefer to weigh weekly and my thought is whatever works best for each individual and keeps your mental focus where it needs to be, then awesome!

I had some frustrations with our old scale that kept kicking off variances....but we bought a new one a few weeks ago that actually weighs up to 440 and does body fat etc. It seems to be giving me very accurate and consistent readings. That helped my sanity a lot, because now I feel like it is accurate and I can adjust my nutrition and exercise as I see patterns.
