I use an app on my iphone to take note of my weight, body fat, muscle, water % and measurements. i do this every 10 days (5th, 15th - TOMORROW- and 25th)
I do however get on the scale about every 2 days to check my weight, but it will motivate me and demotivate me, depending on the result, so I don't really take that number seriously... But if it's not down from the previous "unofficial" weigh in, I get rather annoyed, which at the end of the day just helps me stay on track :D |
I weigh in every day and track it via MFP, but that's only been happening the last two months for me as I didn't have a phone that could use the MFP app before.
So I still go by my weekly weigh-ins on Wednesdays to track my progress - I like seeing the trend during the week and as nevaeh says, it helps me stay on track, but the only number that counts for my spreadsheets is the Wednesday number. :D |
I like to weight myself daily just to keep myself in check and accountable for the things I've eaten the day before. I still only really count my weekly Wednesday weigh-ins for the real number, but it just keeps me sane either knowing that I'm headed in the right direction--or that I need to buckle down and work a little harder.
Obviously the fluctuations can freak you out at first, but once you get used to them, it's not a big deal. Like one of the other members said, as long as there is an overall downward trend in the numbers from day to day, then everything is working correctly! :) |
I will be getting weighed weekly as I have a consultant who does it for me, the best thing to do is not weigh yourself too often as you may feel disappointed with the results, waiting either weekly or every two weeks will give you a better result and you will feel like you have acheived more :) xxx

I weight myself daily. Actually, I usually do it 3 times a day, just to get an idea of how my weight fluctuates. It's really helped me to have a better understanding of how my body works. I do it first thing in the morning, when I go home for my lunch break, and before I go to bed. I think it really just depends on what you feel most comfortable with. :)

I weigh myself daily, but only update livestrong and my ticker on Thursday weigh in. I only count my once a week weight as "official" LOL
|
I weigh daily. It keeps me accountable and I find it interesting to see how my weight fluctuates :)
|
Weekly. Long enough that there's a noticeable difference, but often enough that I don't lose track and slack off.
|
Weekly. Friday mornings, in my birthday suit! :)
|
Daily!
My morning routine is this: Wake up, use the restroom, take BC, weigh in..... I also record my weight daily so I can see what my body is doing over time. Obsessive? Some may think so, but I am a visual person and seeing the numbers really helps me keep focus!
|
I weigh every couple of days, just to see where it's at. I only have one "official" weigh in a week though, which is when I update MFP, my ticker, and a the 12 weeks to take off challenge :)

Twice a day:
In the morning after potty (gets recorded in weight tracker app & daily spreadsheet) In the evening right before bed (not recorded, just to reset my scale... if the weight is within a lb of the last weight, it jumps to that number. so this is mostly to keep the next morning accurate, but also gives me a preview. It's usually about 3lbs difference.) "Official" weigh-in days are Mondays for my weekly spreadsheet, Saturday for MFP, and I update my ticker here every time I go down to the next lb. I used to weigh weekly because the fluctuations drove me nuts. But then I needed more data (I am a geek) and had a lot of fun figuring out my "patterns" and what they were related to. The two big things are water retention due to 1) sodium intake and 2) menstrual cycle. With this data I am prepared to stick it out through my monthly 10-day stall/gain. |
I've weighed three times. This year....
|
I weigh in once a week and I try to do it at around the same time (Monday morning :) )
|
When I am doing well I weigh in almost every day. When I am off the wagon I weigh about once a week.
