How often so you weigh in?

[recreatingcate 132]

I weigh myself every day, but for tracking purposes, I only count the weight I see on Wednesdays.

I weigh in every morning as soon as I wake, same time. It lets me know where I'm at. I don't think much of it really.

I'm already seeing changes in how clothes fit and energy levels. I'm also losing steady now, but soon I'll hit a plateau. I take weighing in everyday as just letting me know where I am and what I need to do different, if anything at all.

I have an Aria scale that uploads my weight automatically into MyFitnessPal when I weigh. I weigh every morning as soon I I get out of bed and after I pee. I love to see the graph of my progress. I have learned that the scale moves all week in different directions but by Friday I'm usually down a couple pounds unless I'm in a stall. I just love data!!!

I weigh myself everyday. I have the Aria too its fun to watch the graphs and data as it does wirelessly upload into several applications. I don't worry if it goes up or down or stalls it gives me an idea of what foods I need to avoid that might be causing trouble for me. I am only 4 weeks out at this point so adding food weekly I am trying to be cautious about triggers.

Im waiting for my one month check up to see my progress (so I dont freak out about the 3week stall) and after that I plan on weighing myself every Friday morning only at the gym. Got rid of the house scale. I get super obsessive about the scale and dont want to go psycho. I have enough stress right now!

Christina. Rose - OMG this is me too! I am now 5 weeks post-op. I decided to only weigh at doctor's appointments for my first 4-6 weeks post-op. Afterwards, I have told myself that I will only weigh myself on Friday mornings. I have to make a strategy with scale time given my past (and somewhat still current) obsession with the scale and the psycho impact of not seeing what I think I should see. I can't risk derailing my focus on all the other important things with my new VSG new lifestyle; I have enough to do with making getting enough Protein, getting enough Water, supplements, avoiding Constipation, etc.) Thank you!! Now I know I'm may not be such a weirdo afterall lol :-)
