    I weigh in every few days at the same time of day which is 1st thing in the morning, naked, after a wee :) I find that the most accurate!
  • just make sure that when you weigh in is exactly the same situation.

    When I had scales at home I used to wake up then stroll to the bathroom in the nude and take a measurement everyday. As I only have scales at work now I make sure I am in work for 8.30 every morning and take a measurement in the same kind of clothes each day.

    NOTE some people will say measuring everyday is bad for you because of fluctuations, my personal experiences work for me because I am a lover of statistics and measurements so enjoy being able to track the rise and fall of my weight.

    Just pick a day and keep it consistent.

    Yes, weighing afte a rest day is recommended, but it doesn't really matter.

    I weigh on a Monday, as MFP counts weekly calories from Monday to Sunday, so I can track my weight against the number of calories I have net over the week.
