Tip On When To Weight Yourself!



Recommended Posts

Well who knew???? After 10 months of weighing myself every morning as soon as I woke up and had my coffee but after I took my pajamas off I would weigh myself thinking this was the best time of day (to get the lowest weight). Well my husband said, no, the best time is after you've exercised (even though I have 2 cups of coffee before I go out). Sure enough, the scale is 1/2 lb to 1 lb lower after I exercise! So that's my tip of the day.....I'll take it any way I can get it! (Another incentive to work out too!)

I am usually up at least 1 lb after exercise, I assume this is from the 2 bottles of Water I drink while exercising. My best time is first thing in the AM, after potty, before any fluids or foods.

That's when I weigh as well! I was told you would be at your lowest weight first thing in the morning....

My best time is first thing in the morning, after exercise, then after two hour sauna, potty, strip bare, before any fluids or foods, spit and finally clip toe nails. :P

I am another one who weight myself in the morning before any food intake. I just think that it should be consistence time, so you better see the weight difference.

I weigh every morning before any food or liquids but after a bowel movement.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
