Sunday morning. I weigh on other days but that is the one that gets recorded.0
-
Friday morning, unless I had a bad week then Saturday morning lol0
-
Friday morning. If i have a tendency to eat more on the weekend I have the following week to make up for it.0

My scale automatically uploads results so every morning I remember to weight myself first thing is official weigh day. That's most mornings. If I forget to weigh myself first thing I don't bother until the next day so it's consistent.0

I weigh every morning, after I use the bathroom and before I drink a glass of water to take my vitamins. I jot down my Body Fat %, Body Water %, BMI and weight on a lined pad. Been doing it 6 or 7 months now. I check-in here on Thursdays. Used to be Fridays, but I was going to be out of touch one Friday, so I switched it up.
Today's numbers.
Body Fat 21.6% {down .7 for the week}
Body Water 57.1% { - .5}
BMI 24.3 {- .4}
Weight 173.9 {- 2.7}
My goal weight is 176, so losing almost 3 pounds was not what I was trying to do. I'm trying to increase strength and gain muscle. Must eat more calories, or do less cardio. Or both.0 -

Always on a Saturday morning. This gives me a week to make up for eating too much on the weekend0

Mine is Saturday morning before breakfast. I weigh other times sometimes out of curiosity, but Saturday I weigh and track.0

I got in the habit of making Tuesday's my official day when I was working with a personal trainer (we met that day and he would do my monthly weight/measure on that day). It has worked as an 'average' day.0

Monday is my official weigh-in day simply because I started using MFP on a Monday. I weigh daily, first thing in the mornings after using the bathroom, so I can note trends and make corrections in my eating patterns, but only record officially on Mondays.
Edited: I should note that Monday is my record day for MFP but I have an app on my phone where I record my daily weight.0 -
Every day. I know there will be fluctuations, but I like having all of the "data points."
This.0 -
Mine is everyday.0

I weigh in every Thursday. I do not weigh between days. You can drive yourself crazy!!!! Watch for how the clothes fit -- that will tell you more than the scale0
-
Wednesday morning, as soon as I get out of bed. Hump day seems to be one that is easy to go with.0

Sunday morning,a start point for the new week
Although I play wiifit and it weighs you so I get sneakypeeks that way,but I dont log those0 -
Monday morning. It keeps me from cheating too much on my diet over the weekend.0
-
I weigh in on sunday, if I had a cheat or high sodium day I will wait and have a thursday weigh in.0
-
Friday first thing! Gives me a whole week to recoup just in case I didn't behave the weekend before.0
-
I like weighing in at the beginning of the week - it helps reset me for the coming week, and also helps keep me honest over the weekend when it's most challenging for me.
I used to do Monday morning weigh ins, but now that I'm working with a dietician, my weigh in is my appointment with her, whenever it may be.0 -
Every 3-4 months when I go to the doctor. No need to check every week or two weeks and freak or get too excited, especially since my weight hasn't changed in 5 years.0
