When do you weigh yourself... I'm scale obsessed now!

I haven't weighed since April. I use other gauges for where I am instead of my relationship with gravity. I stay on course much better. With that said, when I was in active weight loss mode (70lbs) I weighed weekly then moved to monthly. Weighing more often doesnt serve you well. I recommend focusing on being consistent with food and activity and let the body changes happen. If you get too obsessed with scale, then it takes emphasis over what REALLY matters. Emphasis and your mental energy needs to go toward making lasting lifestyle changes to the way you eat & move. If you are consistent & persistent with THAT - the weight will fall into place.

Every morning. Wake up, go to the bathroom, weigh myself. I log the weight into a Google Docs spreadsheet via my phone and the spreadsheet automatically generates an average weight for the week. The weekly average weight is what I use as my guide to what's actually going on so I don't stress about day-to-day fluctuations.

Plus, the spreadsheet gives me a nice graph to look at when/if I start getting discouraged. I don't know why, but looking at the downward trend really helps me mentally.

I weigh every Saturday morning, and I put the scale in a hard-to-reach place the rest of the week so as to make it a chore to do it any other day. I get up out of bed immediately upon waking (usually about 7:00), go to the bathroom, and then take off all clothes. I make sure the scale is in the same spot every time. I step on, get my weight, step off and let it reset, then step on again...just to make sure it's accurate. Then the scale is put away again until the following week.

For weeks that I have a big dinner out on Friday night...I still weigh on Saturday morning. For trips away from home, I plan for it. For example, we went up north over Labor Day weekend, leaving on Friday. I weighed on Friday morning that week, but went back to Saturday when we returned.

I am prone to retain water water , so I weigh myself every morning. I started the lipotropic injections last week and was 9 lbs lighter this morning. I also have urinated like a hundred times! I won't log this weight loss because I know it is water.

I weigh to keep up with the amount of water retention I have . By measuring daily I can see a pattern . I refuse to get too worried about it unless I have a crazy weight gain.

I've done it every mornig but the fluctuation got to me. I know your weight fluctuates and all but I was always curios. I've now put my scale away and will do weekly weigh ins. I've recently started measuring and I'm hoping to see changes there as well I'll probably do measuring once a month though

The scale will fluctuate few pounds here and there(water weight, muscle loss/muscle gain etc). Body fat percentage would be the most accurate to determine your overall health and fitness, which is the ratio of lean muscle mass to body fat. once you determine that you can google the chart it will tell you what ends of the spectrum you fall in as. Guys and girls have different charts because naturally girls tend to store more fat in certain regions(genetics) than guys do. For example a guy could be 16% body fat and not have a 6 pack but a woman can.

Monthly, same day, before breakfast and in the gym. The last condition means I have to wear clothes, fortunately for the other patrons.

I weigh every day and try not to worry about fluctuations. It keeps me on track. When I do not the days and weeks go by...I don't want to see the number. For me, every day keeps me honest. It is what it is. Can't deny when you see it every day. I am at goal and need to be reminded of how far I've come and how hard I've worked for it!

I weigh once a week, every Monday morning (because MFP resets on Mondays, so I like to be able to go over the last week and check on my intake/exercise/macros if I got an especially good or bad week). As everyone else said, I weigh first thing in the morning, after potty and before food. It's the most accurate picture you'll get!
