    I have been daily but am going to try to switch to once a week- too many variables for the day to day - makes me crazy!!!

    I weigh myself every morning, after I go to the bathroom when I first wake up. This is when I'm the lightest all day.

At the very beginning I was weighing every few days. I currently weigh weekly but my weight loss has slowed down so I am moving to once a fortnight. Also I think it is important to consider other factors other than weight only, for instance my scale also measure fat and muscle % and I have purchase a special pair of leggings to measure waist and hips


I log my weight weekly...but I do jump on the scale nearly daily (depending on my mood). Whenever I find that the number is starting to affect me though I put the scale away for a few days. It is really hard to see the crazy fluctuations so sometimes I need to just stop.

almost every day. But I only record it once a week.

Every day and record every day, I find it nice to see the progress and the stalls.

Almost every day.


Right now... every day. I'm 1 week post op.
I'm going to try to start doing weekly because I know if I do daily and hit that infamous 3 week stall I am going to discourage myself further.



I am one month post op and weigh everyday. It gets very discouraging when I don't see the numbers going down like I think they should. I am going to have my son hide the scales so I can't weigh daily.

I am nearly 4 months after surgery and I now weigh once at week as my weight loss is quite slow. I also take measurements of hip and waist.
