    Once a week. It means if you slip up slightly one day you can still see results at the end of the week. It keeps me positive as the results at the end of the week are bigger than each day too. I think of I was weighing myself every day I would feel demotivated if I hadn't lost anything and especially if I had put weight on, no matter how small the amount x

    Only once a week and usually at the same (approx) time each week. Any thing more than that and it would discourage me with all the fluctuations that go onl

    Once a week at the same time of the day. As the others have said, I would get disheartened by daily fluctuations if I weighed in everyday.

    Every morning. As soon as I roll out of bed. Sure there are slight flucuations. But not many. I need the motivation, encouragement and accountability. If I weighed myself once a week, I would probably only log once a week.

    I weigh myself EVERY MORNING. I seriously do. I write all my numbers down on a calendar I've set aside just for my numbers. My official weigh in is Sunday, but I log every loss.

    By doing it daily, I have learned to understand how every little thing affects my weigh ins. I can see how much a sodium overload has affected me, I can see how much sleep made a difference or how thirsty I am compared to my weight. I use this as a way to stay on top of my changes and even if I have a surprise drop, I know how I ate the day before and how it might have caused it.

    I weigh myself every morning to see where I am, but the only one I log is Saturday morning's weight.

    EXACT same as me, all the way down to the calendar and the official weigh in on Sunday :)

    I weigh daily or I am not accountable.

    Every day. That way I get to see whether the weight has crept on slowly over the week, or whether it's a one-day overnight blip.

    the scale is the worst enemy... I no longer weigh myself other than at the doctor's office...

    I weigh in on Sunday and will often get on the scale mid week to help keep me on board.

    I weigh in on a weekly basis. Every Friday morning I weigh in and report my measurements.

    I weigh every morning and record it, and that's it for the day.

    But it's lent and I gave the scale up, so once it's over I envision going to maybe once a week because I see it's not as big of a deal as I made it.

    I weigh every morning... right after getting out of bed, before I shower.

    Every couple of days I'll get on to check I'm not piling too much on but only record it once a month as I only seem to be losing after water comes off, at the minute 2-3lbs then nothing for rest of the month, but I'm only about 5-9lbs from goal depending on which goal I decide to go for! (9st 7 or 9st 3)

    Every morning, never any other time of day. I only log it once a week though.

    Once a week for me, but I think I'm going to stretch it to every two weeks, maybe even once a month - It seems like it always takes the scale at least that long to catch up with what I've been doing, and it's frustrating not to see the changes quickly after working so hard!

    I weigh in everyday and officially weigh in on Wednesday. I need to see if the last workout brought me down to the next pound or if the pizza I ate brought me up a pound. Its all about accountability for me!

    I weigh maybe two or three times a week if I want to but I only log once a week, each Monday morning first thing.
