    I weigh every other day or every third day, but only log once a week. As long as you aren't being discouraged or stressed out about the numbers too much, by all means, weigh daily!

    I weigh daily on a wifi connected scale. I can see a graph of my weight and select week, month or year and can go back to when I bought it two 1/2 years ago. Do you know what you weighed last year at this time?

    This time last year I was 460. I'm now 300! Where can I find one of those scales? !

    WOW!!! Congratulations! That's amazing!

    I weight myself every day as well. While I don't have a wi-fi connected one, I do log everything in an excel chart (several years of data in there now).

    Like others have said, as long as you don't expect to see a drop every single day - or multiple days in a row for that matter, you'll be ok.

    There is nothing wrong with weighing every day. It's a good habit to get into.

    Weighing everyday helped me learn and stay accountable to lost 70lbs, and now is helping me keep weight gain in check in pregnancy.

    I'm glad there are so many people here who weigh themselves every day like me. If the number goes down, woo hoo! If it doesn't, then it motivates me to be extra vigilant. So weighing every day is a good thing for me. :)

    This is exactly what I'm discovering!

    Lol. I weighed in despite telling myself not to, after a 3 day city break. 3kg up. 3 days back on track, 3kgs down. Daily weighing gives a false picture, but as long as you know this, then no harm done :-)

    I was doing that too and had to hide the scale from myself. Feel free to add me
