michelecaples 224 Posted January 6, 2013 I love weighing everyday but I do not obsess about the numbers though. My daughter says I am not obsessed I am dedicated....lol. I weigh myself daily and record the.numbers. If they arent going down I know right away to change something up. Tjis has kept me from stalling any longer than 4 days. 1 slowtogo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
worm2872 635 Posted January 6, 2013 I learned a long time ago that if I don't weigh everyday I get way to lax in my eating. I have kept it to once a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigDaddyJ 4 Posted January 6, 2013 Just be careful the way you think about the numbers you are looking at by constantly weighing yourself. When it doesn't change the way you want it to we tend to seek out ways to comfort ourselves, and I know for me it was food. My wife and I are diligent to only weigh in once a week. It can be hard but this new lifestyle is all about discipline, and in more than one area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted January 6, 2013 I weight my self once a week. I think I will threw away the scale & only weight my self when I see the dietician or surgeon. Lolz I'll take the scale to the basement. I hate stalls & it just makes me mad so why put my self threw that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am 12 weeks out and the weight loss has slowed down. At the beginning I was seeing almost a pound a day. Now when the scale doesn't move I wonder what I did wrong. I really need to change the way I think! My weight loss had to slow down, so I need to just weigh once a week and be good with that! Its a mind over matter way of thinking! And the scale can cause great frustration! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CP3482 55 Posted January 7, 2013 I guess because I'm still so new at this, I want to see the numbers every day... I feel like I'm not losing fast enough.... I don't want to start putting that pressure on myself... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kisersassy 369 Posted January 7, 2013 There is nothing wrong with weighing every day. I weigh just about every time I go in the bathroom. But I am not stressed about losing or not because I know as long as I follow the rules the weight will come off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LA GP 117 Posted January 7, 2013 I agree with worm. I weigh daily every morning as soon as I get up for consistency. It helps keep me focused on my goals. Also lets me know if something is going on and I need to change things up. Once I went out of town for a week and when I came back I was 4 pounds heavier! Not sure how that happened but I know as long as Im weighing, Im losing weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kisersassy 369 Posted January 7, 2013 You won't see bigger numbers till you eat more calories and definitely 64+ ounces of Fluid a day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
