Daily for feedback. Every day is weigh in day and so there is no pressure to lose such and such a number by such and such a date.
I also record only the losses.0 -
Weekly. Usually Sunday or Monday morning. I can plan my goals for the week.0

I do the same thing you do.
Next question is naked or dressed.0 -
I weigh in daily. I get to notice things like, high sodium days produces weight gain, which can last a day or two. I also like the progress feature on this site. And I get to see the graph of my success. Even when there are days I gained, in the end the graph is still going down. In the past, I've weighed in once a week and found myself distressed because I didn't lose weight after a great week. Daily helps me be more accountable. However, journaling and documenting what I eat seems, so far, to be the best way to hold myself accountable!
I say, both work, we just have to figure out what works best for ourselves.0 -

Next question is naked or dressed.
Let's just say I'm wearing the same thing everyday.0 -

I weigh in daily..for me it keeps me motivated..If I weighed in weekly I have a feeling that I would start eating a lot throughout the week and would be steadily gaining!0

So far the dailies have it by an almost 2:1 margin. What's important is that you do whatever works for you and whatever keeps you motivated. Thanks for all your posts!0
