:heart: Question of the Day- Day 7 :heart:

When do you weigh yourself? Be honest!:blushing: Once a day? Once a week? Twice a day?



**Me- Almost everyday! I know I know.. I shouldn't but I can't help it! I feel like if I weight myself everyday it helps motivate me for the next day :) I imagine though it's pretty rewarding to see the scale when you only weigh yourself once a week. I do only log my weigh in once a week! Maybe I will hide my scale??...........maybe

    I am the same as you. I weigh myself every morning, but I only record it once a week. I am such a junkie, I don't think I could ever stop the everyday thing. lol

    I weigh myself every time I pass by a scale. Even if I'm in Brookstone. I'll even weigh myself using the meat scales in the produce section of Food Lion.

    I do it Mon Wed and Fri but if I have a significant gain like I did when I got back from my trip then I will weigh myself everyday until it gets to where it was before the gain which is just a few days anyways because most of it is water weight(I dont know why I do this guess Im a junkie too) so I would say Im right in there with just close enough to every day

    Monday morning, ONLY - I might jump on between mondays but high or low those don't count - Monday is my 'official' weigh in
    When I get to my goal size, I will most likely go to once a month weigh ins but I WILL be tracking my weight from now on - I can't trust myself if I don't

    Sadly, I weigh every day. It can be frustrating, but it's also a reality check when I've had bad day or days. While my mind knows the gain is likely water weight, the immediate "jolt" of seeing a higher number is a great motivator to get me back on track. I only log when I've shown a loss so it's easy to see how long a plateau has lasted or how long it took to drop a pound.

    I go through phases of weighing myself every day, but I really try to just weigh myself once a week. I can become to obsessed with the scale, so it's best for me to stay off of it!

    I usually weigh myself first thing every morning - before I have time to eat anything! :)

    I weigh myself sometimes several times a day, but always first thing in the morning. It's a challege to me to see what the scale registers each time I step on it. I only record my weight usually once a week. I guess it's personal preference...weighing several times a day keeps me motivated and reminded of my ultimate goal.:happy:

    I weigh myself every day at least once just because I like to see where I'm at lol, but I don't record it til Friday morning. Even though I may seem like a scale junkie, I don't let that number be the focus of my journey. I may not lose much on the scale, but I'm still losing inches and go by how I feel in my clothes and how I look. :)

    I weight myself in the morning... every morning .... I get up, pee, weigh .. in that order. It helps to keep me motivated and if I have a significant weight loss / gain I can see what I ate the day before. Like if we have Sushi for dinner, the next morning I see the damage from sodium and I KNOW it is a major water flushing day!

    Scale junkie - I weigh every day, usually several times a day., but the first time in the morning is the one that I use to log my weight even though I tend to drop weight after my morning workout.

    I weigh in every morning after going pee :) and I log it every day. Weighing in daily gives me a sense of accountability. I use the graph to keep me from being irrational....for example. I have lost 2.4 lbs since Monday....my first thought this morning was "urg, why arent I losing like I want"....then, after i logged todays weight, i checked my report. It was only then that I realized that i am acually ahead of my target weight loss of 2 lbs per week. I used to weigh myself 3 or 4 times a day, and that was just to much to be considered healthy :) (for me, we all have to do what works for us)
