Weighing yourself



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I was wondering if you guys tried to weigh yourselves or if you waited for your doctor appointments to see how much weight you’ve lost? I’m nervous because I want to make sure I’m losing weight but I don’t want to discourage myself ya know? I look like I have lost some weight too definitely in my face and neck.

I weigh myself everyday, and everyday I say, "I have to stop being so obsessive" lol. But it's so fun to see the numbers drop!

I would say weigh yourself unless and until it discourages you. Also take measurements of your biceps, thighs, waist, hips, etc., those will change too even if you hit a "stall" on the scale.

I'm a big proponent in weighing every day to hold yourself more accountable--IF you can handle the normal fluctuations that happen through out the weight loss process and beyond. You get to a point when you know the difference between normal fluctuation gain or when you've been eating like an a*****e gain. Either way, you're held accountable. I got to my heaviest when I ignored the scale for years at a time.

I wouldn't weigh everyday if weight fluctuations will be discouraging for you. Now you've weighed ..if you can wait for your appointment it will be so gratifying.
