How often do you weigh yourself?

I have one official weigh in a week, same day and same time, but I will weigh myself one or two times during the week, with the sole purpose of making sure i'm still on track. I celebrate no losses until weigh-in day.

Daily in the morning post-pee. My weight doesn't fluctuate very much upward; maybe half a pound. The worst that's happened is that I've stalled for a couple days before losing bunches for a couple days and catching up.

I log my weight in a stat tracking app and I like looking at the graph every day. It's fascinating for me as you can identify short-term and long-term trends.

The problem with weighing weekly is that you could just pick a bad day and end up not losing or gaining weight and having to wait a week or more to find out that it was just a short-term spike. If you have one-day spike and weigh daily, you won't have to wait long to know if it's a short-term bounce or a long-term problem. It works for me.

Here's what the graph looked like on 3/19/2012:



I've since lost another 8 pounds and the slope of the graph is remarkably consistent.

Daily. Since being on this program I look forward to getting up in the morning to weigh myself.

I weigh daily but it doesn't bother me if I see 2-3 lb fluctuations -- generally I use it as an indicator of whether or not I've had enough water/too much sodium, and sometimes to see how my body responds to certain foods (i.e. different types of carbohydrates)

I weight myself 2 times a dail but only track on Monday mornings. I like to weight myself in the moring as soon as I wake up and at night before I go to bed. I usually am 3 lbs heavier at night but the reason why I do it is because it makes me feel good that even at my heaviest I am still 6lbs lighter then before.

I weigh myself every morning (unless I forget or am not home). But I always use my scale to keep it consistent. I like to see trends develop. I noticed every morning after a serious weight training workout I gain 3 pounds. Doesn't unmotivate me, the weight goes back down over the next few days. I like to see things like that as I'm trying to figure out the whole eating right/working out stuff. It's a learning experience and the more data you have the more you learn IMO. Most people recommend once/week on the same day though so you don't see the fluctuations.

once a week.

Once a month or even less. I do have a torrid love affair with my measuring tape.

I weight myself once a week for fear the scale number is moving in the wrong direction.

Once a week. Anything more is moot and pointless. Every Sunday morning, I'm in my boxers and I weight myself after I go to the bathroom and drink no fluids. I keep it consistent so that way I have an accurate way to measure weight change.

Also, lol @ weighing yourself everyday. People do so much mental gymnastics to complicate the simplicity of weight loss.

Every Saturday morning same time!

I weigh myself daily; every morning. It helps keep me in line and on track. If I pigged out and saw the weight gain the next morning, I consider it a lesson not to pig out again.

This. ^^ I do like to see the fluctuations, and it doesn't bother me to see the scale go down a pound one day and up a pound the next, so long as the overall result is down. I'm currently bouncing around between 143.5 and 142.5. I'm anxiously awaiting a solid 142!! I only record weight loss, and only whole numbers. I don't like to have half pounds floating around in my weight chart....don't ask me why, I don't know. I have tried to stay off the scales for a week or so...the number never changed. I do measure myself on occasion, and I do go by how my clothes feel. I just NEED to see that number, even when it says 'bad' and my clothes say 'good', I need to see it.

I weighed myself in January. Or maybe it was February? I might get back on the scale around the end of May.

I typically do it twice a week, on Monday and Friday

3 times a month on the morning after my rest day. I skip the week where I'm bloated and gain 2-5 lbs of water weight to avoid depressing myself.
