Wednesday. Because if I am going to cheat, it will probably be on the weekend.0
-
Friday mornings. Mondays are never pretty for me because I'm usually up a pound or two from the sodium.0
-
ok... officially it's Friday. I'm going to admit this here, I weigh everyday. GUILTY I know, but it motivates me to know where I am all week so that Friday isn't a surprise... :blushing:0

Mine are Friday mornings, because I generally do great as far as diet Monday through Friday. If i'm going to slip, it happens Friday night, Saturday, or Sunday. So I have time to work it off Monday thru Thursday if it happens.0

Every day - first thing in the morning (after going to the bathroom). I have found that it keeps me more accountable during the day when I know I have to get on the scale the next morning.0
-
Saturday mornings, as soon as I wake up, after I pee, nekkid :blushing:0
-
Currently I weigh in on Sunday evening which is TERRIBLE!:sad: It's becuase I'm in a weight loss challenge and our meeting are Sundays at 5pm.
Anyway, it's ending here in a few weeks and then I might change to Friday morning.0 -
My weigh day is Friday mornings, that way if I have gained a pound or two, hopefully not but in case that happens, I have the rest of the week to work extra hard to get it off! I also weigh unofficially EVERYDAY! :flowerforyou:0
-
I used to do it on Fridays because I would always go overboard on the weekend so that gave me the week to fix that . . . but I have made it Monday for a number of months now to help me avoid the weekend free-for-all. Im now much more conscious of what Im consuming on weekends and my official "weekend warrior" attitude is gone.0
-
I weigh in Friday, for several reasons. I joined MFP on a Friday, and it was my first weigh in. I work Monday thru Thursday, so Friday is my day off and a good day to weigh and check in. And, as someone else said, I tend to splurge more on the weekends, so I weigh before the weekend, then have Monday-Thursday to balance things out again.0
-
I also can't help to get on the scale every morning! Before I eat anything and after using the bathroom.
It does tick me off when the scale doesn't move in my favor. But, that also motivates me to have a great day nutritionally and with exercise. And when I see a small movement downward in the scale everyday, I feel GREAT and I'm in such a good mood all day!0 -
Officially on saturday morning... during the week I get more water in and tend to eat better, the weekend is too relaxed and my fiance always wants to eat bad foods :laugh: (But I take a peek everyday or every other day cuz I'm weird like that lol)0
-
i weigh myself daily, and it makes me more aware of what a difference just ONE day can really make...0
-
Monday.....it keeps me behaved on the weekends.0
-
Mondays because I'll go hog wild on the weekends if I don't. Still go over most weekends but not like I used to.0
-
Friday is my official day but I weigh in on Wednesday also to see if I need to do something drastic by Friday, LOL. Friday because that is when I started.0
-
Ha ha Monday morning. I used to be really bad about drinking and eating on the weekends but now I don't really do either so i got into the habit of weighing in on Monday so i would push my self that much harder to make up for any mistakes I made during the weekend0
-
I've always been a Sunday morning person. I think this stems from my original weight loss where my cycling classes were tuesday and thursday, so I wanted to weigh myself between the off days. Now it is just a habit.0
-
I usually weigh in on Friday mornings because that is when we all decided at work to weigh in. I usually weight myself every morning right as i get up after going to the bathroom and naked. I then weigh myself after the shower just to see how much i gained from the shower in case i ever forget and in a rush i can also do it when i get out.0
-
I started mfp saturday night and up til last night i didnt even own a scale! Ha! but now that i have one i feel the need to get on it everytime i see it! Idk if thats any good either....0
-
I used to weigh myself every day - then I switched to every Monday, but it would make me depressed b/c of the weekend. Now, I weigh every Friday morning - I can usually catch up all week on any damage done over the weekend and be happy going into the weekend....0
-
Thurs...that way If I cheat on fri, sat or sun I still have at least 3 days to recover and hopefully do enough damage control for my thurs weigh in.0
-
My weigh in day is usually every other Friday. Weighing less often helps keep me from playing head games with myself. Last week I weighed on Thursday, but I had been *ahem* a little backed up, and it *ahem* resolved itself on Thursday after my weigh-in, so I weighed in again on Friday. Yippee! Another .8 lbs gone!0
-
Officially its Monday but since scale is in the bathroom every time I pee:embarassed: I know its sick but cant help it0
-
I weigh on Wednesdays and Saturdays. I do it twice a week because, knowing that I have to weigh myself in 2-3 days makes me less likely to cheat. Also, my worst days for eating are Saturdays. When I weigh myself on Saturdays, it encourages me to keep going... especially if I've lost weight!0
-
Sunday morning after emptying my bladder and before breakfast.
Why? Because I am OCD and my week starts on a Sunday!
I'll take a peek mid-week or whenever I feel the need. Helps keep my water balance in check. If it's going up, I know I'm retaining water and not drinking enough... helps keep me in line with my daily water needs. :drinker:0 -
Thursday, because i'm in a group on another forum where they weigh in on thursdays, lol
But I weigh myself daily, and when I see a large enough change (0.5 lb or more) i change my weight on here whichever day of the week it might be.0 -
I may step on from time to time, but my official weigh in is on the 8th of every month. For me, I find it too frustrating to plan for a 1 lb. weight loss/week, and know that so many factors could come into play if I weighed myself every week and didn't see a change. So, once/month, and I also take measurements and pictures as well. It's CRAZY the changes that occur in pictures that you don't notice in the mirror.0
