I weigh most days but Saturday mornings always seem to be my baseline. I don't have work to worry about. Normally get a good amount of water the night before and sleep in a bit. Don't usually eat till like 1-2 most days anyway. Might also have to do with it being a workout day Sat. so I have had like 1.5 rest day.0

I weigh myself every Thursday because it is convenient for me. Before my first meal and after using the bathroom so my weigh in can be most accurate.0

TL;dr: Use a trending weight application. Weight on days that end in y.
Understand that water weight fluctuation is normal and varies faster than your underlying weight level does.
Use a trending weight application to figure out what your underlying weight level is doing.
Libra--android;
happy scale-- iphone
www.trendweight.com -- supported scale, or free fitbit.com account (even without a band)
www.weightgrapher.com -- supported scale, or manual data entry.0 -
I try to be realistic about weigh ins. I can hold fluid and fluctuate several pounds in a matter of a day. My goal by getting on the scales is to face the demon, not to be overly anal about a few pounds.0

it doesnt matter. why would it?
i can tell you i never EVER weigh on mondays but thats due to excessive alcohol consumption on the weekends LOLOLOL
i generally weigh and log on friday mornings0 -
Just pick a day and be consistant.
I chose to weigh every Sunday morning first thing. No wild reason.0 -
I weigh on Friday mornings because I eat out on Friday night and have a cheat day on either Saturday or Sunday but a friend of mine weighs on Mondays she says that keeps her from blowing it over the weekend,0

Doesn't really matter as long as you are consistent. I did read somewhere that our weight tends to be lowest on Fridays and highest on Mondays (because many people eat heavier on the weekend).0

As someone already said, as long as you are consistent, it really doesn't matter. I think Wednesday is a perfect day to weigh in if that's what you've already been doing.0
