I'm new to the measurement thing. I've seen lots of questions about how often you should weigh in, but have yet to see one about how often to measure... Opinions?

    Thanks! I was thinking about doing it every 6 weeks, but I don't know. Any one else have an opinion?

    I measure weekly. But I'm a data nerd.

    So out of curiosity and because I'm kinda new at this whole thing...how often should we weigh ourselves and measure ourselves? What body parts to measure...waist, neck...and?

    I do it every other week. I weigh myself on a Saturday, and then measure on a Weds to keep the motivation going during that week!

    I weigh in weekly and measure monthly (or when I remember. :P). I measure my bust, waist, hips, upper arms, and upper thighs. I've seen other people measure neck, and calves.

    I weigh myself all the time. Used to do it weekly, as that's what everyone suggested, but I find myself hopping on the scale about every 2 days or so. I'm neurotic. LOL! As for the measuring, I'm trying to figure out how often to do that too... was thinking about doing it every 6 weeks, but may change that idea to every 3 weeks since my mini goals are set to every 6 weeks... not sure yet. I personally measure my neck, waist, hips, left thigh, and left arm (the left side is apparently my biggest) LOL!
