    I weight in every day after the bathroom but dont post it unless ive lost weight, which happens in bunches. However I feel that weighing myself everyday helps me stay in check.

    Are you measuring your BMI yourself? At the gym? Or did you find a site (or something similar) to help?

    I like the idea and was wondering.

    Thanks for replying to my post!

    I weight myself pre-BM and post-BM every time. I just like to know is all.

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    A bit embarrassaing to admit in a public forum, but I refuse to record my weekly weigh--in until after I've put in some time in the "library."

    For "official" tracking, I weigh in and take my measurements first thing Monday morning -after bathroom, before breakfast. I also will step on the scale first thing in the morning throughout the week, just to see how I'm doing. If I see I've gained a little, I'll be mindful of that until my next weigh-in. If I see a decrease, I'm more motivated to stick with it until Monday. And if I'm planning to have any little binges or eat anything high in sodium and/or fat, I try to do that Thursday or Friday so my weigh in won't be affected.

    I'm pretty obsessed with the scale.

    At the end of the month. I'm trying to push myself and check on my progress at the end of the month. I don't like weighing myself often.

    I used to obsess about it and weigh myself each day and would see crazy +/- numbers. I had lost motivation for 8 months for various reasons. When I restarted my weight loss again in October, one of the changes I made was to strictly keep to once a week weigh-ins. I keep identical weigh in routine for less fluxuations. I weigh on Thursday mornings after the morning bathroom trip. I also have a scale that reports Body Fat %, Water %, Muscle %, and bone density. While the extra data points might not be 100% accurate, I have made a simple Excel Sheet to track and graph the progress. I have seen a drop in Fat % and erratic Water % (expected).
