weighing yourself every week?

I do once a week

I'm addicted to weighing every morning. But the only one I get excited or anxious about is my Monday morning weekly weigh in. That's the one I log and the one I use to judge how things are going. My weight can vary by 2-4 lbs from one hour to the next, so I can't afford to get worked up over every fluctuation.

I do once a week. I get too obsessed and stressed about it if I do it everyday. It's very normal for your weight to fluctuate throughout the day. It's the reason I don't use my Wii Fit as much as I used to... it shows you how much you weigh each time you check in. It was making me way to obsessed about every little change for the worse.

Stepping on the scale every day, at the same time (ish), but I don't always check the readout (Got a Withings scale so it's being logged). Only registering new weight here once a week though.

i weigh myself every morning, but I'm starting to think that's a bad idea. my weight varies from day to day (water weight) so sometimes it gets me a bit depressed when i see the numbers higher than expected.

My biggest problem with the "weekly" philosophy is that 1 bad weekly measurement could screw you up mentally for your entire week... and possibly put the entire project in jeopardy... if you get depressed enough. I think a daily measurement that is a bit higher is less likely to destroy your confidence to the point that you quit.

I usually end up weighing 3-4 times a week but only log successes. Thursdays are my "weigh-day" or my re-evaluation day. Weekends are sometimes hard for me (less routine) and Mondays are usually the day I can get myself back on track. Give me 4 days of being on track and I can feel pretty good about things. If Monday were my weigh day I'd almost always be discouraged and would likely give up pretty quickly.

i weigh in every friday morning..dont step on the damn thing again till monday and i use that SOLELY as a guage to kick it up a notch (which i usually need to do since i love my wine) and then i step on it again wed, again, SOLEY as a guage and then do friday weigh in...it totally helps the mind set if you dont let the fluctuation get the better of your mind. i use it as a tool for my week. does that make sense?

I weigh in once a week, but every morning I find that I step on the scale. I feel as if it keeps me accountable to myself.

I weigh myself every day but only record it once a week (Saturday). Our weight can fluctuate during the week so if the number is a little higher than the day before don't freak out. If your clothes are fitting more loosely and you are losing inches that means you're on the right track, even if the scale says differently that day.

I get on it every day to keep myself motivated but only "weigh in" on MFP when I reach a new low. That weigh, I know where I'm at, I keep an optimistic perspective on it, and I'm always shooting for a new low on my way to my final GW. Works for me pretty well, psychologically.

I do the same thing. Weighing myself everyday and at different times of the day just helps me know how my weight fluctuates and I notice what kind of things have an effect on that number on the scale. That way if I see a sudden jump of a pound or two I don't freak out-lol. I only put a new weight on MFP when I've dropped a pound or two and kept it off for a few days.

I get on the scale EVERY morning!!!! I am really good at getting my water in, its all I drink, and have been drinking for the past 15-20 years or so,,,,but I find that fluctuation helps me get the extra into me that my muscles may be holding onto because of a heavier workout day, or perhaps my sodium levels going up......if I near 1000 I need to up the water,,,,just keeps me more accountable for what I'm doing, either good or bad,

good luck, just have to do what works for you

I don't own a bathroom scale. I only weigh once to twice a week, and I use the Wii Fit Balance Board. It logs it for me I can set my goals, and its part of my workout routine. I made sure when I started working out to set up routines to track progress, so on workout #1 of the week = I take and record measurements, on workout #2 of the week = I take my weight... etc. However, this week will be off, because I am going on a work trip so I will do my workout on my off days, and I will move around my stats information so it will stay as close as possible to the days I normally take them. The measurements have been more helpful, then weighing myself anyway.
MFP has helped me keep all the data in one place which is nice.

i used to weigh myself everyday and it came a slight obsession to check after i got up in the morning. then i stopped because i just couldnt be bothered as i found myself getting frustrated. now i aim to weigh myself once a week when i get up on a certain day, as i can see through the week if ive lost any. ive learned now that i cant get frustrated or upset if i gain some, i then now i just need to try harder!
