Scales? How often do you step on?

I weigh in once a week, every Monday morning. I find it's just right now to get overtly obssessive. If i see a fluctuation, i can trust it is a 'real' loss or gain, i.e. Not water retention.

Once, maybe twice a week.

Every day. I've learned a lot about how I react to certain foods, like booze, by weighing and recording daily.

I'm also a daily weigher. I only record once a week though. Like pp it only ever makes me work harder or puts me in a good mood

I used to weigh every day, but then I would just get too neurotic about the results!! If I gained or just maintained, I would get depressed for the rest of the day. And then there were those times of the month that I would try to rationalize any gain as "water weight" or just blow my diet all together because I got all pissy!!

Now I do once a week on Friday morning. Then I know what I have really gained or lost for the week and I am far less stressed about a number on a scale!!

Twice a day, only register once a day though. Works for me.

Just about every morning. That's what works best for me, though of course we're all different.

Every day and I log it on mfp so I can see overall trends. And to keep me motivated. Or to stop me pigging out as if I do I see the effects as the scales creep up!

I used to weigh every day, but the scale upsets me and I cannot cope with seeing fluctuations, even though I KNOW it's normal. It's taken me a long time to admit that. I now weigh once a week, and I'm considering changing that to monthly and going by BF%, as ultimately, weight isn't actually that important in comparison.

Every damn day! Lol! Actually I like to learn about my body and what happens to it..... Yeah, at first fluctuations or not losing would bum me out. But then I started to record the daily weigh ins on a separate spreadsheet along with the number of calories and carbs I ate the day before....as well as exercise minutes. . After several weeks I just looked at the weekly average and really got a great idea of how my body does what it does. Ya know, how much to lose and how much to maintain, etc. I also noted my weekly workout hours and if they were more cardio or weights, etc.

Anyway my point is that it is wonderful to have the knowledge AND it can help you not be bummed or worried and it keeps me on my game happier!!

I weigh every morning after the loo and before I have had breakfast- but realised that my body holds on to weight no matter what I do- in a year I haven't lost a lot but the inch loss is another story. The scales depress me but sometimes they surprise me. i only record loss on MFP never gains as I have gain every other day and find I lose it by the end of the week. It's all rocket science to me still.

Once a month and tape measure once a week works for me.

I weigh every morning. If I see a smaller number than yesterday, it makes me more conscious about what I eat that day to see the same number or smaller the next day. I know some people don't even own scales and go by the way the clothes fit, I could not do that. I have to see a number.

I weigh two to three times a day, and my "official" weigh in is typically Sunday morning. I am an information hound so I like seeing those fluctuations, it gives me an idea of the patterns my body goes through over the day, week, month.

Rigger

I weigh daily, but I only log my weight from Saturday morning. That way, I feel like I am keeping a secret from everyone all week, *evil laugh*

Haha!

I hop on the scales every morning before breakfast. I know I shouldn't, because, for example, it went up by 0.4 pounds the other day, and I was bummed about it the whole day. How silly. It was probably water weight or something. I know I should weigh myself once a week to keep my obsessiveness in check!
