    It would drive me nuts to only weigh once a week. Did I weigh on an up day or a down day? It can swing 3 pounds in either direction from one day to the next.

    Agreed, which is why the average weight of the week is more accurate. I've had days where overnight I would gain 5 lbs and still end up losing weight at the end of week when I compare my weight average to the previous weeks.

    On Friday I weighed myself in the morning at 217.6 lbs. After visiting family on Easter weekend and a diet of heavy salted/sugared foods, a lot of deserts, a lot of beer, 12 hours of driving, one kid committing 3x on the trip back home through a blizzard...

    I weighed 222 lbs this morning. Now after 3 years of experience I know that I didn't eat 12,000+ surplus calories and that this is just water weight and after 5-7 days I'll be back to normal.

    Used to.

    Then I stopped caring.

    Now it's maybe once every 1-2 weeks.
