How ofter do you weigh



Recommended Posts

I have this cool scale and an app that goes with it called Weight Gurus. After you weigh yourself, you press a button and a scanner code comes up. You take a pic with your phone and it will automatically download the weight, muscle mass and body fat. I do it every day just cos it's cool.

Can anyone recommend a good scale? I have a welby digital that is not accurate. It changes by the minute, even with new batteries.

What about a balance scale like they use in doctors' offices?? LoL

Only thing I can recommend is if you have dumbbells, keep them close by and test the scale's accuracy before you weight. If its a little off, you can +|- the pounds to YOUR final number.

Good ideas with the scales. I jump on/off 3 time in a row making sure the number is consistent.

It's funny because before the band i would weigh every week IF that... after the band i find myself on the scale every day.. sometimes even twice... a switch has been flipped! HA but while i learned that i should not concentrate so much with the numbers but with the way my clothes feel.. So there is a group of us on IG that does Eff the scale challenges to keep us off them for so many days..

I weigh myself all the time and I know that makes me a "slave to the scale!" Anytime I'm at home I get on the scale - all hours of day & night. I work during the day (btw). I contribute some of my weight gain for not having a scale for a few years and it was "out of sight - out of mind." It's probably better to weigh once a week. Whatever is best for you! I'm a little psycho about it (lol) & I know I am!

Your weight can fluctuate every day by at least 3 to 9lbs. If you are going to be a scale watcher then you have to get over being disappointed when the numbers go up. Water weight and other things will only make the scale go up. You have to be patient if you are going to weigh everyday because if not you will make yourself crazy.

I weight every day....sigh....and am not proud of it but I'm just addicted I guess. I try to only count my Friday weights on myfitnesspal.com and I only document my monthly banding anniversaries (4th of each month) in my weight loss binder with my pictures and measurements. I know it's a terrible roller coaster and I don't recommend to anyone that you weight every day...but just wanted you to know you are not alone =(

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
