How often do you weigh yourself?



Recommended Posts

I weigh myself every day...if I remember. As Betsy said though, I just don't let it govern my mood and I only record my weight on Monday's.

I weigh myself once a week, every Thursday morning after I'm done with the gym for the week.

I weigh myself 3 times a day... when I get up in the morning, when I come home from work, and before I go to bed. I know, it seems obsessive, but it is how I keep myself on track and know if I need to work out harder !!!

Hehe. I don't think it matters as much...It looks like everyone does it. and when you've lost as much weight as you have, it obviously hasn't effected you negatively.

I weighed myself everyday when I was losing, and now 2 years on, I still weigh myself everyday lol.

It's become a habit, and I don't think it's a bad one. I was aware of daily fluctuations, but if the scale showed me heavier than the day before, I worked out harder that night. And I consistently lost as a result.

Now I weigh myself more as a matter of habit. I can tell without weighing myself these days if I've gained a couple of lbs!

Every day, first thing in the morning naked.

I track it every day on a wipe-board calendar that I have tacked on the inside of the bathroom closet. I put a number on my weight loss on Mondays.

For me, when I don't weigh everyday I am not accountable and I find myself eating more. II seem to either weigh everyday or never, and when I'm trying to lose weight everyday is better than never :laugh:

Me too! If I put on weight from a fluctuation, I just work harder lol.

I love your tattoo. You're one hot mama!

I am weighing myself only at the doctor's office - I know that I can easily become obsessed to things - so I am not allowing myself to making it be about the number.

i am not going to lie - it is way exciting when I get weighed there :laugh:

Hehe, I'll bet! You get the chance to see all of that weight drop off at once!

I would totally do that if I had control over myself :biggrin:

I weigh myself every morning and record it in MyNetDiary.com along with everything else. I also measure myself every other week because I know that if the scale is not moving I know that my body is adjusting :laugh: My therapist said that she already sees a difference in my face.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
