    I use Happy Scale and weigh daily. I like the data and Happy Scale smooths out the fluctuations a bit, making it easier to see how I’m doing overall. If I didn’t use that app, I’d probably stick to weekly weigh ins in order not to get discouraged. 🤷🏼‍♀️

    I am not a fan of weighing daily. I prefer one set day a week and I weigh first thing in the morning. Daily weigh ins for some can lead to disappointment because of small fluctuations. Plus I got tired of unreliable digital scales and bought a beam scale and it does not do in between lbs you have to round up or down.

    I can't seem to resist weighing myself several times a day. As long as I don't freak out if the number is up a little....

    I stay away from weighing everyday. Generally I can go up to 3 weeks at a time between each one. It can become abit obsessive checking each day.

    The theory is sound that if I keep eating in a defecit, I don't worry. I know in the long run my weight will go down.

    It also feels nice when a considerable chunk comes off your goal. It re-focus's me to go again for the next big pay off.

    Plus for me it's cheaper as I use scales that can measure body fat etc and they are £1 a go :)
