How Often Do You Weigh?



Recommended Posts

I would love to hear about weighing habits from everyone. I am one of those people that weigh every morning and often get discouraged if I see an increase or if the scale doesn't move. I am thinking about asking my husband to hide my scale and just weigh at the doctor's office every month. I might go through withdrawals. What do you do?

I weigh every single day and so that I can keep that accountability going. I also track all of my foods on myfitnesspal and go to the gym for 5-8 hours per week.

Don't get discouraged and keep up the good work!

I've been weighing everyday too! It's quite addictive! This week I'm trying something new...once a week weight check!

I've been weighing everyday as well. It can be discouraging and I'm trying to stop. However, as WestTnGirl said...it can keep you accountable too. Yeah...that's what I'm going to go with. Its not an obsession. Its keeping me accountable. :) best wishes to you all!

I only weigh in at the doctor's because day-to-day fluctuates so much that it would drive me crazy. And scales can really vary so there are only 2 that I consider the actual true numbers: The one at the doctor and the one at the surgeon's office.

About once a month to 6 weeks. It's worked well for me so far.

I think that I would drive myself crazy with it too. But I am concerned about waiting a month to weigh-in. Maybe I will have my poor hubby hide the scale and bring it out once a week for a weigh-in at home. hmmm...still need to work on this plan. I just know how obsessive I get with it.

I weigh myself daily and only record it once a week on Thursday. I don't obsess over the daily number, only the weekly one! :lol: It works for me!

Good Idea...then I can stay accountable as some of the other ladies suggested but only count the weekly weigh-in

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

      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! 😞
