I'm new and was wondering......

i think once a week is good in the beginning because people seem to lose more initially and you can use that as a motivation. but after awhile i reccommend once a month. things tend to slow down a bit as you get to your goal and it can be discouraging, well it was for me at least. good luck! oh and you also may want to take measurments.

I weigh once a week, and up until recently was satisfied with it. I like the above poster am at about 190 and don't see much change every week. So along with stepping up my exercising I think I'm going to start weighing once every other week. Doing it at the same time of day for every weigh in will help with accuracy. If you do it in the morning, make sure you pee first! :happy:

I weigh myself once a week... because I always lose SOMETHING. Even if it's .2 pounds, it's something.... and it gives me energy for the next week! However, once I stop seeing a drop every week, I'll probably start doing it every two weeks, then every month.....
