Hi there... I am new here and am curious to see how often everyone weighs in? I was thinking of doing it weekly, but I wonder what is working for others....

Thanks.

    HI . I think weighing in 1x a week at the same time every week will be the most accurate .
    Goodluck.:):happy:

    Yep, I agree - weekly, same day, same time, preferably in the morning before you eat/do anything so that you know that no other factors are influencing what the scale says.

    My gym has a scale in the locker room right by the shower entrance. Therefore, it is hard not to step on it everytime I walk past it. However, I only record my weight once a week, usually Fridays.

    I weight myself every Monday and log that into MFP but I also weight myself every Thursday so it can give you that all needed push to keep going even if its only 200g :)

    I check-in every two days. I like to know my progress and adjust if I need to.
