  • I'm glad that's what works for you! But don't assume it's what's best for everyone ????

  • I weigh everyday, because then I know immediately if I am gaining. I also got an Aria scale awhile ago, so now I weigh myself on the scale I've had since the start, and write it down on my calendar l

  • Throw out the scales. it's about feeling better, getting healthy......its not about a number on the scale.

I weigh everyday, because then I know immediately if I am gaining. I also got an Aria scale awhile ago, so now I weigh myself on the scale I've had since the start, and write it down on my calendar like I have everyday for years, but then I also weigh myself on the Aria scale which syncs to MyFitnessPal. Sometimes if I'm feeling either extra thin or extra fat i'll weigh myself at other points during the day, but first thing in the morning, totally naked, every single day, is how I am able to best keep my weight on track.

Couple times a day ????

I'm totally annoyed right now bc I just got a HUGE HEAVY plaster cast on my arm and have no idea how much it weighs

I weigh myself every morning and night. I know obsessive but I have to to make myself accountable. I am almost 22 mos post op and will continue to do so lifelong, that is just me. It works for me.

Daily just before my shower. I also write on my calender :)

My doctor told me daily...,but I prefer weekly...I pick one day a week and make that my weight day...I think after I hit my goal weight I will check it daily to keep tabs that I don't slip up

Glad I'm not the only one. I try not to weigh every day. I try to make myself go a couple days in between. Sometimes it happens and sometimes I sneak on the scale! Lol

I weigh EVERY SINGLE DAY! Ok, I'm not being truthful....... I weigh every single day....TWICE A DAY! Yep, I love it! Keep on weighing girl.

I weigh naked before every shower and record it in MFP. It keeps me honest and makes the stalls seem like they last FOREVER! ;)

Throw out the scales.

it's about feeling better, getting healthy......its not about a number on the scale.

I weigh myself every single morning and log it in. It helps keep me on track.

Too many people are afraid of their scale. They aren't afraid of looking at their speedometer to see how fast they are going or their gas gauge to see how much fuel they have left, but the thought of a scale gets them all upset. It's just a tool that tells you where you are at. It relays a factual piece of information. That's all. It doesn't shoot death rays.

Every morning before showering. But I check inches about once per week- waist, hips, ark and thigh. Then if I'm stalled but losing inches (or parts of inches) I still feel good.
