I am just curious as to how often those of us who have had WLS weight ourselves. I see so many people post that they are not losing any weight and it sounds like they are weighing themselves daily. I have been on so many diets before I had my surgery that one of the things that I learned was never to weight yourself daily. I still follow that rule and I only weight once a week on Monday mornings since I had my surgery on a Monday. I found that weighing myself daily when on other diets only made me depressed if I did not lose or possibly gained some weight. I am sure that it is the same for those who have had WLS.

I would suggest that those who have had surgery only weight "ONCE A WEEK". You will be doing yourself a favor and not be so tempted to give up and have a bad 2-3 days before you get back on track. Just a thought and was curious as to how many out there weight daily or more than once a week.

I agree. I was driving my self crazy a couple weeks ago, weighing myself everyday. Now I am in the super Saturday weigh in posted by Sleeve4me. It does help to see the bigger number lost vs the 1 lb differance everyday.

I have to admit, I do weigh myself daily. I just can't stop. I'm not at all discouraged by the number I see each day. Even when I've stalled for a week or so, I still remind myself that I have lost 26 lbs since surgery 7 weeks ago, so that is pretty good!

I weigh every two weeks. But that's only because I am still 12# over the highest my PCP's scale goes!

But even when I am able to weigh on a regular scale I do believe in only weighing once a week. I think you get too discouraged when you weigh every day-and some here even weigh more often than that.

I weigh myself daily and have since about a month prior to surgery. I don't get discouraged by the numbers on the scale, in fact it keeps me motivated.
