Curious how often everyone weighs in. Once a week? Or every day?

    Usually once a week when I remember.

    Everyday, but I always expect weight fluctuations

    officially - every Friday morning but I jump on the scale pretty much daily unless it's that time of the month (I don't need the emotional roller coaster). I am fine with knowing that when I get on the scale daily, my weight may be up. If you weigh daily that comes with the territory.

    Same. I have a Wi-fi scale that automatically syncs to Happy Scale app and MFP. I anticipate the fluctuations and it helps me pay more attention and stay consistent.

    Daily. I expect ups and downs. I like to learn which foods will cause a water weight gain and how long it takes to lose it.

    Every day for over 4 years. 2-1/2 years on maintenance.

    Every day, and I use an online app that charts the trend. I highly recommend it. I used to only weigh weekly, but it was really frustrating because sometimes those little snapshots told the wrong story.

    I record my weight every 30 days but sometimes I check it in between

    I check everyday, just because it drives me insane not to. I tell myself to only do it on Fridays but no, can't stop the urge to hop on the scale. I also step on and off of it 5 times to make sure it's accurate. Smh I wouldn't do that if I were you lol

    Thanks all! I do daily myself. I know many don't recommend but for me it keeps me on track. I was curious if I was the only one.

    Like others have said... daily for me via withings WiFi scale. Not only do I expect fluctuations, I can fairly accurately predict them based on food quality, exercise and sleep. For me a fun observation was that calorie count is not a fluctuation driver for me. Eating processed food is!

    I don't own a set of scales as I think I'd be too caught up in how I'm doing every day. Instead I go to my local Boots store on a Sunday morning and weigh in on their scales, getting a print out. Somehow, I feel more accountable when it's printed in black and white!
