    i only wanted to weigh myself every 5 weeks and then record my weight on here, but its too much of a temptation to just jump on and check.

    i get on the scales about once a week. but im only planning on recording my weight every 5 weeks to keep me on tack.

    Every morning, same time, no clothes.
    I know that weight flux happens (bloating, monthly cycle, ect,) but I also know that daily weigh-in keeps me honest.
    After a binge or a day of high salt, or alcohol, I literally see that number bounce 2,3, sometimes 4 pounds higher. So for that morning, I do not get my reward (scale moving in the right direction.)
    But on typical days when I follow my program, I see a few 10ths drop off from the previous morning. So i get a little reward.
    I think daily weigh ins are fine as long as you keep it in perspective (just one day over many days.)

    once or twice a week. My weight can fluctuate 4 or 5 lbs either way. It makes me crazy.

    Every day when I wake up and after I use the bathroom, but I only record and take measurements once a month.

    Multiple times a day I am insane about it. It stresses me out not to step on it I went a long time not liking the numbers there so now I am happy to see them regularly going down

    I also weigh several times a day :). I had a doctor to tell me to weigh every morning and if I was over one morning I could look back and see what I had did different.

    Every Friday morning. I'm in a weight loss challenge on Thintopia, and Friday is our weigh-in day.

    I'll probably keep it at every Friday since it's a habit now.

    I like to step on the scale every morning, but I only track on Monday's. It is starting to become a mind game that I need to break. Things were so much simpler when I wasn't concerned with a number...

    Everyday, in the morning. Measure on the first day of every month.

    Usually every morning because I like to. I only log when I see a loss.

    This is how I weigh too.

    Daily in the morning.

    Helps me keep track of my sodium and my water intake

    every morning first thing...I know but it helps me keep my salt intake down, cause I can see when I had too much the day before!
    ^^ This

    I have seen as much as an 8 pound difference in 10 hours.
