Weigh in day?

Wondering what day of the week you weigh in on and if there's a "reason" why?

I tend to use either a Thursday or Friday and generally its because if I've been bad at the weekend (whch I usually have!) then I've got time to get myself back on track and do lots of exercise in an attempt to make up for it....

Just curious :smile:

    I weigh on sundays as its the last day of the weeek, and I want to see if all my hard work as payed off, and then the following day on monday its the start of a fresh weeek for food and excercise wise :smile:

    I always weigh in on a tuesday on some proper calibrated scales, I have no idea why! LOL but I do have a sneak peak on my own scales too!

    My weigh day is Tuesday. (today lost another 1lb!)

    The reason for this is.. I normally go a little mad (sometimes CRAZY!) at weekends, and normally go over by allowance for calories by quite a lot.

    On Sunday's and Monday's I am always VERY GOOD, and this allows me to claw back some of the ground I lost in the pub/club/restaurant on Friday and Saturday.

    Works for me ok. 11.5 KG Lost in 11 weeks.

    I always do my weigh in on a Friday, purely because I'm in the same routine all week but usually at the weekend I eat at different times to normal (and sometimes go over on my calories).
