    I weigh myself first thing in the morning after I've gone to the toilet. It works for me.

    Another daily weigher - I like to track the progress. I find weighing less regularly means you might not have a true gauge of how you're going - one weigh in day might be a light day whereas the next would be heavy. At least doing it daily, you can see the overall trend.

    It helps if you don't get too caught up in the number - I don't let the scale weight affect me anymore, I know it's just a number! I prefer to worry about skin folds and measurements

    But then some fitness gurus call the bathroom scales the sport of the devil

    Daily, I'm very results driven as well. If it goes down, I feel good and know that what I've been doing works. If it goes up it just motivates me more to make better choices.

    I do an official weigh-in every weekend, usually Sunday Morning.

    Maybe I'll also jump on the scale once or twice during the week, but that's usually with clothes and mid day, just to calibrate my mind.

    Monthly - Daily or even weekly was discouraging and demotivating for me.

    Probably every 3-4 weeks, and I only record the weight if it's gone down. There is no formula that works for everyone since the psychological reaction to weight fluctuations is different. If weighing yourself every day is discouraging, DON'T DO IT.

    In the beginning, it was every week and now it's every other day.

    I weigh in daily (in the morning). You have to be prepared for the fact that sometimes the scale will go up, though.

    Daily here too. I like seeing the data. I only lose weight about every two weeks though.

    I currently weigh-in every 2 weeks. I was doing it once a week but was getting discouraged, since I'm a very results driven person. It keeps me very committed!

    How often do you weigh-in, what do you recommend? Also what day of the week do you pick?

    You mean how often do I weigh?? Every single morning. Unless I am at a hotel with no scale, I never get up and don't weigh myself. Been doing this for so many years it's my normal.
