    I weigh in irregularly every 1-2 weeks, but I log each weight since I joined MFP. I need the encouragment.

    'er day. The zig zag spikes Monday and goes lower than the previous Friday/Saturday.

    I log daily in Fitbit which I have connected to MFP (it allows for 0.1 pound increments). I'm logging daily at the moment as I am just starting and I want a nice, accurate trend line. After I can confirm that my weight loss matches the rate I expect, I'll go down to once a week, probably Sunday morning.

    Good job everyone!! Anyone else??
  • I weigh myself every morning and record it once a week on Fridays. That way if I go over a bit over the weekend I have the rest of the week to make up for it.

    It's more of a zigzag pattern.

    Thanks for the zigzag anology.

    I used to do weekly (Every Sunday Morning at exactly the same time), but now I do daily (at the same time). The reason I decided to do daily weigh ins is not because I want to make sure i'm losing weight every single day, but because I want to show people that losing weight is not a gradual steady decline. It's more of a zigzag pattern. I think people just have a misconception about how weight loss should be and they get disappointed if one day the eight 3lbs more than the previous day, so I'm keeping track daily to show them

    This interests me as I started logging daily this week and I've been horrified to gain every day with a calorie deficit

    I have a separate app to track my daily weight. On MFP I use only my Sunday weight amount. In the separate app, it tracks my average daily loss, weekly loss, and it tracks my BMI and gives me a nice chart.

    Once a week, measurements at the same time.

    Weigh every morning and record it in libra to cut through some of the randomness. Only record monday morning's weight. Should i start averaging out the last 3 days and using that for my official weight in mfp?

    I only weigh myself on Saturday mornings! If I have lost weight that week, I allow a cheat meal on Saturday night.
