So I was just wondering how often other people with the band typically weigh themselves?

Like CG says, whatever works for you.

I weigh myself first thing every morning. If the scale doesn't move, I don't let it bother me. I know I'm doing the plan.

Some ppl go ballistic if their weight doesn't change or they gain a little. They need to stay off the scale.< /p>

Its what you can handle.

I ballooned up to 251 for many reasons but one was because I didn't know or guage how out of control it was really getting. I didn't know because I never stepped on the scale. I won't ever balloon out of control again without knowing and seeing it. For me, I step on the scale every morning. It doesn't consume me but I need to know what is going on with myself. It's accountability for me.

Good luck on your journey!

I weigh every morning. I don't worry unless I have more than a 3lbs gain that doesn't go down in a day or two.

Twice a day...out of habit.....first thing in the morning, and later at the gym.....I don't know why...I can predict what it would be...guess I'm more afraid it will change significantly...

But for 2 years it has been holding steady with the same 5 lb fluctuation up and down....

me too...daily and I for one shouldnt because I focus too much on the number on the scale. It does fluctuate up and down 4 lbs or so which bothers me but in the same sense I know where I am at. When I do gain and it stays on...It makes me look at what I have been doing etc and think...then I have to kick it in the ass to get back to my lowest lb..and try losing from there again. It is a slow process but am going to try and stay the course. Im hoping for 2 years to have lost that 100 lbs if possible...that should hopefully be do-able! :)

I check my weight every morning. I kept a weekly journal and record my weight on Monday's. This help me keep control of my weight. If I don't see lost, I know I have to change things up.

I am an extremist and weigh myself twice every day. Once in the am and once in the evening. This also helps me gauge how I handle certain foods as I track all my food too! Had I been this diligent all along I would have never been 300+ lbs. you have to do what works for you and when it works for you. Had a done this on other diets the slightest fluctuation would have sent me on a downward spiral. But now that it's a lifestyle change I am more just curious how much I fluctuate on a given day and what my food choices were on that day. Good luck to you

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
