What is the best day of the week and best time of day to weigh myself?

    I like Monday a.m. I get up, potty, and weigh. Monday helps me not splurge on the weekend. But sticking to the same day each week and the same time of day is the most important part.

    This really varies for everyone, although I think that most of us weigh in the a.m. on an empty stomach. Also, most of us throw in the "after the potty" requirement lol

    As far as day, I do the opposite of ouryear002. I know I blow it a little on the weekend so I weigh in on Friday so that the weekend's sodium/alcohol/etc. doesn't show up in my weight. Then, I know I didn't do too bad as long as I'm back down (hopefully lower) by the next Friday. So, whatever works for you.

    ouryear002 is right, the most important thing is to pick a day and time that works for you and stick with it.

    It doesn't matter what day, just make it the same day each week.

    I was told to weigh your self first thing in the A.M. Before you eat or drink anything!
