Every morning after using the restroom before eating. I have an Aria Scale, so it logs automatically. I think it's interesting to see the trend. It also gives an average2

Once a month0

Once a week at the clinic I go to, working towards not weighing myself at all once I'm discharged0
-
Every day. I use an app that tracks overall weight trend, not just the fluctuations. Which is helpful since I'm close to my goal weight. When I was eating in a deficit, I weighed once a week.0

This. Some weeks I lose 2 pounds of planned some weeks I lose none and some weeks I lose 3-5, but it all evens out in the end. I do however totally agree if the fluctuations are going to bother someone they should only weigh weekly or biweekly.

Normally once in the morning and once at night because seeing how my weight changes during the day is interesting to me.0

once mid-week and one final week weigh-in. seems to keep me on track without being too obsessive0

Every Monday morning0

Every morning, first thing in the morning.
I like to get a feel for my trend and see how various events and habits affect my weight. Seeing my weight fluctuate gives me a more solid idea of what parts of my weight are fat, and what parts are water.0 -
I "officially" weigh and record my weight once a week on Sunday mornings.
I work out M-F and any weight I get in the mornings on those days will be high due to water retention from exercise.
Sometimes I do step on the scale on those days just to see where I'm at and I've noticed I'm always down in comparison from last Monday to this Monday, Tuesday to Tuesday, etc.1 -
Every day. Data is fun!0

Daily, first thing in the morning. Did this during the weight loss phase and continue doing it now in maintenance1

I weigh daily and add that to a weight trend app, but I only log an "official" number once a week (Friday) in MFP.0

Once a week, first thing friday morning0

Forgot to say i put my weight into the site on sundays. Keeps me from over indulging on the weekend knowing my weighing is coming up XD0

Once a week. Sometimes not even that often.1

Haha same!0 -
I weigh myself everyday, but I've noticed that if I have a weight drop one day the next day I will be a few ounces over that, so I don't worry about it because at the end of the week I've lost 1 or 2 lbs. However, I would like to be able to weight myself every 3 days so all I see is the loss.0
