How often should I be weighing myself?

I still weigh everyday. Works better for me.

Every couple weeks worked for me this way I saw a difference in weight lost every week can be stressful and weighing daily messes with ur emotions imo

I favor daily weighing do you can learn your body’s normal fluctuations. Congrats on being so close!

It's up to you. Some people do actually do better on weekly/monthly weighing because they stress out over the fluctuations and basically can't handle it. Personally I like to do the daily weigh in first thing in the morning after visiting the toilet. I always wear the same night shirt for it to keep the weight of my clothing consistent as well.

So chose a time of day (morning is usually best because you've just had an overnight fast while asleep) then decide on how often works for you. If you choose daily be prepared for ups and downs but if you are doing MFP right then after a month you should definitely be seeing an overall trend downwards.

I weigh myself daily to keep myself accountable and also to track how different foods and eating patterns impact my weight. It took a very long time for me to realize and really understand that the numbers on the scale don’t mean everything. They are only one data point in my health and that how my clothes fit is a much more accurate measure of my overall fitness.

Here's my take, based on my own experiences and what I've learned from reading up.

Unless you need to do otherwise (such as if you find it overly psychologically taxing), daily weigh-ins after waking up and using the bathroom are the way to go. Especially so if you are a woman who is not in peri-/menopause or with a condition modifying the standard hormonal profile.

Using a trending app is very helpful for many people. This can be a web-based app (such as weightgrapher.com) or a smartphone app (such as Libra or Happy Scale). I have experience with weightgrapher.com and do find it useful. I noticed it also has the ability to log notes related to weigh-ins, which is a useful tool when a major shift (such as starting a new exercise program) happens.

Additionally, some people (myself included) find it helpful to have reference points to the prior month and/or cycle. If you have a predictable cycle, this is easily set up in a spreadsheet. One final data point that is particularly useful is a 7-day rolling average, which can also be easily set up in a spreadsheet.

Alternately, trending apps usually offer an option to have a comparison to other timeframes, such as 1 month, 3 months, etc., which can be enough in itself for some people.

Depending on the part of the hormonal cycle a female is in, she will have different weights. By having different reference points, especially if the "same cycle" parts can be compared, it offers clearer insight to how things are really going. The water weight changes really drive some ladies crazy, and being able to separate that out is a big stress reliever.

Try a few different things for a month (or two-three) and see what you like. I do have to say that the idea of weighing in and having it record without being seen might be a great thing indeed, as I can imagine things could get more frustrating/stressful as one gets closer to UGW or even getting into maintenance.

Best of luck to you as you close in on the final stretch!
