weigh in?

I weigh once a week. I try to do it the same day of the week around the same time of day.

I weigh every day out of curiosity and to help keep myself focused, with an "official" weekly weigh in.

I officially weigh myself once per week, but if I've had an off day I will weigh myself the next day to see how it's affected my weight.

I weigh daily in the morning. I track it in an excel graph with a trend line. This allows me to see monthyl trends and correlations with my hormonal cycle. In some weeks I lose easily, in others not at all --> hormones.

As long as the trend is downwards and my weight is a bit above or below the trendline, I'm happy.

I know some people don't do this because the fluctuations stress them. For me it just keeps me on track and has allowed me to really get to know my body.

What ever works for you is good!

Also, what a great idea! I think I may do this myself too!

Research shows that if you are trying to lose weight, weighing every day can keep you on track. If that is too formidable, try once a week to get a sense of how things are going. If you are at your goal weight, depending on your preferences you should weigh yourself once a week or once a month to keep track of how you are doing. If you have no concerns for your weight, weigh yourself once a year. Just remember that daily weighing, while helping you figure out when you are doing well or doing poorly, cannot tell you when your hormones are affecting you, when you've had too much salt, when the weather is warm, or any other such thing. The Mayo clinic suggests you weigh yourself twice a week. Here is an article about it: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/diabetes-blog/MY01294

But, it all depends on how you feel about the scale, I think. If you sabotage yourself if you have a bad weight, weigh yourself less often. I only record my weight when in goes down. I used to do all the time, but it made me feel bad. I still weigh daily, I just don't record it.

I weigh 700 times a day! Okay, obviously not, but I do weigh (almost) every day and sometimes multiple times during the day. I've been at this for 4 months and had great success. I haven't ever been so discouraged by the scale inexplicably going up that I've thrown in the towel. I'm committed to this, and seeing results on the scale has been helpful! I understand water weight, and fluctuation will occur along with sodium intake and hormone levels...So I do what works for me!

I weigh daily, but I only record my weight once per week.
