How often do you weight yourself??

fleetzz · July 2013

I weigh daily if I can (was on a cruise and scale was in gym--didn't weigh because I typically remove EVERYTHING). I record it in MFP and find it helpful for trends (i.e. lots of salt = high weight, alcohol = high weight), and it keeps me focused. Now when I start to trend upward I can do something about it before 2 lbs becomes 20.

Daily, with an electronic scale.
I really like the decimal point. If I lose even .1 pound, that feels very good to me.

daily. every morning. Keeps me accountable

I weigh once a week and log once a week. i know your weight changes through the day but if i see that scale up and down i cringe so for me every Sunday morning...even though sometimes I really want to in the middle of the week lol

I do my weight and measurements at the end of each month. I started MFP a few weeks ago so I am looking forward to my first check in. When i lost weight before I found it more rewarding to only do it monthly. The numbers were bigger

I weight myself three days a week. Deadlifts on Monday, squats on Wednesday, bench on Friday.

Ha! Awesome!

Right now I am weighing myself once a week, so I do not get discouraged. I know that my weight may flucuate from time to time due to a heavy meal or more water intake during the day.. Bottom line is, I don't want to get to weight conscious. This is a life time journey and I want to make it as simple as possible.

This - plus log onto MFP every day and log everything !

I weigh myself every morning.

Sadly, I don't have a scale

So, I weight myself at the gym. I go to the gym usually every night and if I have time, I do it there. Then I log it into MFP if there's a 2+ lb difference.

Every weekday morning. I log every weekday morning as well.

I think the long term pattern data will be interested to view. Although it's a bit discouraging to see "4lbs down!" next to a "2lbs down!" day sometimes - since weight fluctuates. But I like to see the progress.

I dont have a scale at home so i weigh when im at a friends house. Keeps me from obsessing over every little fluctuation due to water or tom

I try to focus more on how i look and feel rather than the number because its not always the best thing to go by.

ndj1979 · July 2013

three times a week to track fluctuations ..m w fri ..

I really do not log it on MFP but I think my goals are different than yours...

I was weighing in every morning, but I quickly got discouraged. Which led to me having a few bad days....so I stopped. I plan to check it every 3 days or so.

I'm just wondering what everyone's habits are as far as #1 - How often do you weigh yourself? & #2 - How often do you log your weight onto MFP?

I have joined the weigh in challenge and we weigh every Wednesday. I weigh at home daily, just to be on top of myself. I log in my weight loss:bigsmile: :flowerforyou:

LavenderBouquet · July 2013

Once a week, whether I want to or not! And I always plug it into MFP, though some weeks I turn off the option to show losses on my feed.

I weigh myself every morning religiously. I don't expect to see a change, but it is a good habit to have, and it keeps me honest during the day. I update my weight on MFP about once per week.
