Me personally I think monthly would be better bc the scale could be my worst enemy.. if I don't see results consistently each week I really beat myself up, and I'll probably give up, but I feel as though I should transition to weekly just to stay on top of my numbers...any advice MFP?

    I weigh daily but probably will switch to 3 times a week. My weight just swings too wildly during the week to trust daily weighings.

    I weigh almost everyday. I work in healthcare so I use one of those scales every morning I work before eating or drinking. I don't expect to lose everyday but I like seeing the fluctuations.

    I weigh every day or close to it but only log weekly, if that.

    I weigh daily and track for trend data, but only officially log once a week (Saturday or Sunday morning).

    Wow I didn't think I would get these responses as far as daily! But wat are good apps to track my weight fluctuations or weight trends?

    iOS user-Happy Scale
    Android user-Libra

    For web-based tracking there is Trendweight, which you need either a Fitbit or Withings account to connect to

    A good app is this one or Happy Scale, which always logs your lowest weight.

    I weigh daily (usually) but log weekly, whether or not it is high/low.

    Weekly weigh-ins for sure because I want to know how well I'm doing or if I need to cut back on food portions at a time when I can make changes that will produce positive effects that willl take effect in my body right away. That feedback is really helpful on a weekly basis.
