Hi, I'm Renee, new to My Fitness Pal. I was wondering how many times are you suppose too or should you weight yourself?

As a general rule, you should weigh once a week. A lot of people weigh every day. (I'm one of them) I don't weight to get encouraged or discouraged, I weigh daily to make sure I'm not gaining. But I only log my weights once a week. (Or when I lose)
Others may offer more ideas.
Good luck this is a great place to start!0 -
Most people recommend once a week at the most often. If you weigh too often, daily fluctuations will create frustration.0

i weigh daily - depends on you really.0

He Renee, I also like to weigh in daily, but I start on sunday, end on saturday, then add up all my weights and divide by the number of weigh ins that week. I find this to be the most accurate method for me.0

I weigh in once a week on Sunday morning when I first get up.0

Thank you all for your comments. I think I'm a once a week kinda gal. I'm eager to see where i'm at come Sunday.0

I weigh daily so I can make sure that what I'm doing is working. I do know that just before my TOM my weight is going to be 1-2 pounds higher. I only record it on here when there's a change in my weight.0
