    I weigh in every morning same time. And then I email it to my trainer.

    Once a week. I also don't own a scale which is no bad thing (for me).

    I weigh myself daily, with the less variables possible. So, naked, first thing in the morning after I pee. Since I always weigh right after getting up and naked, the weight should stay consistent from day to day (barring sodium/hormones etc). I change my weights in my tracker when I'm at a new low, I don't track my fluctuations, which happen basically every other day. It works for me, I've found that when I don't want to weigh myself it's because on some level I've not been giving it my all, so if that's the case I should at least force myself to notice what's happening.

    I weigh myself Mon-Fri as soon as I pee and before jumping in the shower. My weight seems to fluctuate as much as 2-3 pounds every few days so I feel more confident that I can see a "happy medium". I'm always worried that if I only weigh once a week that it will be a "high" day and I'll get discouraged or it will be a "low" day and I end up going too far over my calorie allowance.

    Like some of the others, though, I don't document a loss or a gain until it's been that way for a couple of days and then I'll record the weight from a few days ago, never the lowest.

    I do this too and then I get depressed for the day if I see a gain. :(
