Measurements

How often do you track your measurements/weight loss.
I weigh myself every Friday, but I feel that I should wait a little longer for measurements.
Any suggestions welcomed, thanks!

    I do the exact same I log weight of Fridays. I use a daily trend app to see how my body changes.
    I do measurements when I feel the scale isn't moving as much then when I see progress when doing my measurements it's a win win
    Good luck!

    I weigh myself every morning but only consider my Saturday morning weigh-in as my official one.

    I have super scales (Tanita RD-953) that take all sorts of body composition measurements (like body fat and metabolic age). I only use that once a week on my official Saturday weigh-in.

    Every 3 weeks, also on the Saturday, I take my body measurements (chest, waist, arm, thigh and neck) and also take progress photos (front facing, side facing and face).

    That seems like a very good idea. I do find myself randomly weighing myself just because during the week but like you, just count the one day lol for the measurements that seems like a good idea/ time span to wait, thank you!
