How often do you weigh or photograph yourself?

[gettinghealthymom1 70]

How often do you weigh yourself? I downloaded a few apps and took a few photos today on day 1 of liquid diet.< /p>

Just wondering how often you do these things?

Funny, I was just looking for a"before" pic, as surgery is next Monday. I found 5,632 pictures of my husband, kids, family, scenery... you name it, but none of my entire self. I take face shots, but not one of my body! Goes to show how much I truly despise my visual image! I will attempt a full-body selfie on Christmas day! =)

I weighed daily since day of surgery, but really track weekly. I took a picture monthly during weight loss, and now I take one every few months. I've continued to shrink even though I've been in maintenance for a while. I've had a couple of plastic procedures done, so I'm continuing to take pictures through that, too. Since I tracked my loss on a spread sheet, I love to look back over that and my pictures to see how far I've come. Funny, but it's still not old to me!

I took my first photo a few days before my first appointment. The next one I took was last week for my one year. I wish now that I had done it every month. I weigh myself almost every day, although many others don't. If I don't track, I lose track.

I weigh myself monthly. I didn't really take any pictures before surgery so I just pulled up a recent pre-surgery picture that was a good example of what I looked like. I took pictures after my 3 mth follow up because honestly I thought I looked pretty good. I then found a picture that I took on the day I left the hospital and when I put them side by side I was surprised at the difference. I needed that picture because even though the scale says I'm losing, I couldn't see the difference. It was nice to notice I had lost a chin!

I became obese after pregnancy and then extremely obese after a traumatic experience five years ago. I refused to have my picture taken and don't hav any pictures of myself from that whole time period (except my hideous license picture). Part of me is glad I didn't because I want to perceive it as a bad dream. Realistically, I missed out on having a picture with my son when he was a baby or young child. I guess I was being selfish. I plan on participating in a family picture once I hit onederland.

I only get weighed at my post op bariatric appointments and GP appointments. I own a scale, but don't use it right now. The scale still makes me anxious and afraid, even though I'm staying on track and following all guidelines. It's a mental thing. I'll eventually get past it.

I weigh once a week...every Monday morning at the exact same time As I'm going through weight loss, I take a picture every 10lbs lost. It's really amazing the difference 10lbs makes! Oh, and if I'm feeling particularly cute that day, I'll snap a pic

The first few months I only weighed at the doctor's office. (Like 5 and 11 days out, 6 weeks, 10 weeks then around 3 months). Since then I've weighed weekly on the dog scale at work....fully clothed, with boots and usually in the afternoon. I don't own a scale, so I really have no idea what my actual "naked, first thing in the morning after I pee" weight is.

My sister made me take before during and after pics to send to her. Probably one every couple months. Glad she did....it's been a great motivator to look back at how huge I really was!

I weigh once a week..I'm tempted to do it more though just because

I take pictures daily and I have even been getting a new drivers license pic each month. The fit bit scale helps keep track of everything.

Waiting on the passport photo. I want to be about 15 lbs thinner before my pass port photo.

I weigh daily, but track my weight once a week. I take body measurements every 2 weeks if I remember. It usually ends up being every 3 weeks or so. I take photos once a month. Well I should say my hubby takes photos of me every month. It is great to see how much my body changes in a short period of time, especially, when I am stuck in a stall for weeks!

For now daily, havent taken any pictures yet.

[CheleLynn45 615]

I weigh daily and log it, this is per my doc. Usually I would just do it weekly.

We took before shots the Sunday before my Monday surgery on 10/27. We take front, side and back shots is the same clothes (skin tight tshirt and shorts) and the same ones in my bra and undies once a month in the exact same spot. I also take my measurements every month.

Even being just 8 1/2 weeks post op it is fun to look back and see the difference!!
