    Somewhere I read an article that said that people who weigh themselves more often do better on weight management and loss. I'll see if I can find it.

    I weigh everyday/every other day.

    No luck
    But I do better when I weigh myself most mornings.

    I weigh myself every morning just before hitting the shower, no clothes! If I have lost a pound, I'm ecstatic and encouraged to keep going. If I have gained a pound, I'm determined to lose it and more! Nothing wrong with weighing every day. I never weigh during the day or after eating, or especially at night!. What's the point!
    SUCCESS!

    It is the national weight loss registry, and 78% of those who lost 30lbs and have kept it off for a minimum of a year weigh in weekly so they can catch a gain before it is out of control.

    I used to weigh in all the time, literally, everytime I went to the bathroom. Now I am a one time a week girl, every Wednesday as soon as I get up in the morning, 6 am every Wed. :yawn:

    I step on the scale probably 4 times a day. It's horrible......but if I see it sitting there I have to get on it!

    I check every morning after I do the buisness... but my official one is Monday. Though if I have went down during the week, I'll log it.

    i have to hide my scale. I usually put it underneath one of the couches so i have to dig it out! if i saw it all the time id have to weigh too and that would be no good for me. lol:laugh:

    Just banished that d*** scale, today. yep, not gonna look at it for a whole month. :noway: I'm relying on the tape measure now, and how my clothes fit, and just how I feel. I was getting way too obsessive over the "numbers"......:grumble:
