I've tried the 'once a week' thing, and found that I would gain more weight in the long run. Seems like 'out of sight, out of mind' and I wouldn't eat like I should. When I was a teenager I weighed every day, until my mother found out what I was up to (eating disorder) and got rid of the scale. Now that I am an adult (without the ED) I weigh daily. It helps me keep track of fluctuations, and I can compare to figure out how well I am doing. Plus, no excuses to go off plan. I also compare for the week before, and see how much of an actual difference there really is.
