Mattiexcore 3 Posted August 16, 2014 Simple question.. I think everyday is a little too much but weighing myself has become one of my favorite parts of my day! Just wanting some feedback to see what everyone one else says! Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justagirlat50 1 Posted August 16, 2014 I do not have scales at home but from experience before losing weight....scales kept me in check! If i had scales now maybe I wouldn't be up almost 10 lbs! (I'm 1 year 3 months out).... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kindle 8,667 Posted August 16, 2014 I don't own a scale, so I try to check my weight about once/week at work so I have something to post on my ticker. It's probably not super accurate since I am fully clothed, sometimes with boots and jacket and sometimes before Breakfast and sometimes after a lunch or snack, depending on when I remember to do it. But it gives me a general idea of my trends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NYCkindofgirl 62 Posted August 16, 2014 Hi! Like you weighing myself has become one of my favorite parts of the day I'm loving seeing numbers that begin with a 2 instead of a 3. However, I only record the weight on a weekly basis, so the fluctuations between days "don't count". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finediva 979 Posted August 16, 2014 I weight myself EVERYDAY. I will never stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pelicanlady 122 Posted August 16, 2014 I only weigh myself once a month. If I were to weigh everyday it would screw with my mind. If the scale was down I would think great I can eat more. If the scale was up I would say, screw it why bother. This is working great for me. As long as my clothes feel better I am happy. I do take my measurements every 2 weeks and that really helps.

fezik23 240 Posted August 16, 2014 I weigh daily, same time. I keep a spreadsheet with my numbers. I need to be able to see and track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dragonfly1111 61 Posted August 16, 2014 I weigh myself everyday. I feel like it really messes with my head though. I need to weigh only once a week. I let the scale affect my mood. I think I need my husband to take the scale away. I see it and I weigh. Not good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mattiexcore 3 Posted August 16, 2014 I've been weighing everyday and I think it's becoming somewhat of an obsession and I just don't know if it's the best idea. It's good to know I might not be going crazy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AvaFern 3,516 Posted August 16, 2014 I weigh myself once, every morning when I wake up, and write it down in a calendar. I've been doing this for years and I notice the times where my weight really went up were the times when I wasn't weighing every day. It keeps you cognizant of gains a lot more quickly than if you only weigh every once in awhile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beautysleeve559 69 Posted August 16, 2014 I use to weigh myself every morning and it would always mess with my mind. Like one minute after a hard work out I would be down about 5 lbs. Then go home drink Water and go to sleep. Then in the morning weigh my self and have gained like 3 lbs back. It was a mind game even when I know it was probably water weight. So now I weigh in either once a week or every 2 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Memily 86 Posted August 16, 2014 I weigh myself every morning when I wake up right before my shower. I did that even before my surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Whathereagain 3 Posted August 17, 2014 Everyday. I keep track of my first morning weigh in but then jump on and off that thing all day long. It's an obsession....and not a healthy one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
