    At first, I only weighed myself once a month. I couldn't handle the up and down, up and down, knowing how far I had to go. That worked for me. As I lost more, I felt it benefited me to weigh myself once a week. I could see if I was losing or not and what was or wasn't working.... Recently, about a month or so ago, I began weighing myself every day at the same time, no clothes... It has been a real motivator and helps keep me in tune with my goals. I'm a bit of a science nerd so I am intereted in seeing how my body responds to amounts of water, salt intake, foods I eat, etc etc.... It has just helped me be more conscious about what is going in.... At the end of the day, you do what works for you and helps keep you on track :)

    Twice a day. I have noticed the better I am eating the less my weight fluctuates throughout the day. Also knowing I have to face the scale before I go to bed makes me much more conscience of what I eat at dinner and prevents me eating myself into a coma at dinner.

    I weigh daily every morning out if habit. Sometimes I'll weigh at night too if I want to see how I did that day. I actually like it. For the most part, I see progress almost daily so if helps me stay motivated.

    As my nutritionist advised... WEEKLY! B) ***Daily is my old obsession and the recipe for disappointment.
