    i only do a weigh in once a week. your body weight can fluctuate a little bit day to day so i find that doing it weekly gives me a better idea of actual weight loss

    Weighing every morning puts me on track for the day and also I am not suddenly surprised a week from now when I haven't lost as much as I was hoping for.:smile:

    I used to always just go by how my clothes fit. It worked for awhile, but this year I need to try a different approach, because I lose the weight (usually 10-15 pounds) then put it back on. I never used the scale. I will now, cause I want to keep track and then STAY there !! I never counted calories before now either because if I go by my hunger level, I won't make good choices .

    To be honest I weigh myself every morning before I start the day, it keeps me motivated to know that if I eat bad at night (my biggest rough patch) I'll see it in the morning, but I only record my weight down every week so the overall progress comes through.

    Agree. Any small decrease in a weigh in keeps me motivated.

    When I am on a plan as now I weigh daily THE minute I am not weighing daily it because I DON"T want to know what it says and its going the wrong direction!!! So I am back to the daily,unless out of town ect. YES it is flustering sometimes but keeps me in line or OUT of my FAT pants!

    Once, maybe twice a week at the very most if I think I can feel a difference in my clothes or don't feel as bloated, but once is usually enough. It would be so off-putting to see all of the little variances for me

    I weigh myself about every other day. But, I only record my weight each week (on Wednesdays). The fluctuation sort of drives me crazy, but it keeps me motivated. =)
