How often do you weigh yourself?



Recommended Posts

I weigh myself every day...if I remember. As Betsy said though, I just don't let it govern my mood and I only record my weight on Monday's.

I weigh myself once a week, every Thursday morning after I'm done with the gym for the week.

I weigh myself 3 times a day... when I get up in the morning, when I come home from work, and before I go to bed. I know, it seems obsessive, but it is how I keep myself on track and know if I need to work out harder !!!

Hehe. I don't think it matters as much...It looks like everyone does it. and when you've lost as much weight as you have, it obviously hasn't effected you negatively.

I weighed myself everyday when I was losing, and now 2 years on, I still weigh myself everyday lol.

It's become a habit, and I don't think it's a bad one. I was aware of daily fluctuations, but if the scale showed me heavier than the day before, I worked out harder that night. And I consistently lost as a result.

Now I weigh myself more as a matter of habit. I can tell without weighing myself these days if I've gained a couple of lbs!

Every day, first thing in the morning naked.

I track it every day on a wipe-board calendar that I have tacked on the inside of the bathroom closet. I put a number on my weight loss on Mondays.

For me, when I don't weigh everyday I am not accountable and I find myself eating more. II seem to either weigh everyday or never, and when I'm trying to lose weight everyday is better than never :laugh:

Me too! If I put on weight from a fluctuation, I just work harder lol.

I love your tattoo. You're one hot mama!

I am weighing myself only at the doctor's office - I know that I can easily become obsessed to things - so I am not allowing myself to making it be about the number.

i am not going to lie - it is way exciting when I get weighed there :laugh:

Hehe, I'll bet! You get the chance to see all of that weight drop off at once!

I would totally do that if I had control over myself :biggrin:

I weigh myself every morning and record it in MyNetDiary.com along with everything else. I also measure myself every other week because I know that if the scale is not moving I know that my body is adjusting :laugh: My therapist said that she already sees a difference in my face.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
