How often do you weigh yourself

[lauragshsu 6]

I'm just curious as to how often everyone else weighs!

When I first got banded I weighed myself everyday sometimes 2x's a day. Now I am down to just every couple of days.

OMG..... Call me crazy but I weigh myself like 2-3 times a day usually 1st thing in the morning and definately before I go to bed (like the #'s gonna magically drop)!!!....lol

I want to do it once a week, but I'm too tempted to know if I've lost anything so I am doing it every couple of days now.:bored:

Hey there,

I was weighing myself every day, then went to once a week and now every couple of weeks.

The reason for this was my weight wasnt coming off quickly enough and also would change a fair bit from day to day which was not good.

I was thinking, what am i doing wrong.

I then went to my doctor and he said it is definately not about the weight, it is more how your clothes are fitting and i have gone down nearly 2 sizes but this is not showing on my weight loss.

To date i have lost about 13 kilos and i was banded on 12/02/2010.

All in all, i can tell from my clothes, so try not to worry about the scales.

Good Luck,

Stacey.

I am obsessed with weighing myself. I do it at least 5 times a day. I need to stop!

I weigh every morning, before my shower and after my visit to the loo! (every little bit counts you know! ) I find that this way if i have a bad day I can be extra good to keep weight in check. Also weighing yourself at same time everyday gives more accurate reading. Do any of you find that you put on weight just before that time of the month?

i weigh myself every other day. if i gain one day i make sure i adjust my meals the next.

I have to do every few days (tuesdays and Fridays). If I weight myself daily, I go waaaay overboard, and would probably be starving myself.

My name is Julie and I am a scale addict :thumbup:

I weigh at least 5 times a day. When I get up, everytime I go to the bathroon, and before I go to bed. I really need to break up with my scale.< /span> :biggrin:

I step on the scale several times a day to see what it changing during the day and to try and see what type of errors my scale makes.

However, only my tuesday morning weigh-in in the same outfit goes into my weight log. I actually weigh six times and take the average to try and compensate for the scale measurement error.

Since this tuesday the scale says I gained 6 pounds... which has to be an error. So I just take it with a grain of salt and keep working to the next official weigh-in.

It's always nice to see a guy on the boards. They are definetly female heavy (so to speak). :wink2:

Just wanted to say congrats on your band, seeing as you are fairly newly banded. :biggrin:
