    yes I do and I do retain fluid so often my weight goes up
    in fact by weighing daily for a couple of months I could see the real pattern of my body and it helped me to not worry on the weeks when weight went up as I knew how long I would be bloated and just when to step on the scales again

    Now I'm confused as to if you were being sarcastic or not... So confused!

    Can we just agree that the answer is No don't weigh... and skip all the nonsense... please?:)

    I will weigh myself, but I won't document it. It just keeps me in check with what is going on. =]

    I know I weigh more just before and during my period, about 5 lbs. I don't have a scale, so I just don't bother to find one during that time. In moving toward my goals, I am focusing more on what my clothes feel like.

    I always weigh...even if I ate like a fat kid (like last night...jeez, 2 slices of pizza for 900 calories???)...because that is how I stay accountable to ME. I weigh during that week knowing there are probably issues and not freak out if it moves up...like right now during PMS week...and use that to motivate me to work harder in my workouts (aka, stuff I can control)

    I still weigh myself, but if there is an increase in the scale (lol, I refuse to call it a gain), I don't log it. I kind of mentally fool myself so that if I see a higher number, I use that as motivation to really stick to my goals for the week. And then I usually end of losing 1.5lbs the next week.

    I think the sarcasm and nonsense refers to the fact that this very same question is posted EVERY DAY, if not every hour on this forum. Personally my philosophy is do what works for you, you don't need the permission of various strangers on a forum. :flowerforyou: There is, however, a lovely search function near the top of every forum page which is very handy for checking to see if what you're interested in knowing has been covered before. Just a thought!

    I think she thought you were sarcastic because this question has been asked like a 1000 times. While a newbie might not have seen all the posts about TOM, you're pretty active on the boards so you must have seen them right?
