I started weekly and then tried daily 3 days this week (sunday, mon and tues). Now 3 weeks post op, I think I'll go back to weekly cause it made me nuts!

Daily.
Get up.
Make the pee pee.
Strip off the jammies.
Pull the scale out of the time out closet.
Get on.
Groan.
Record weight.
Put the jammies back on and start day.

For me weighing everyday only worries me so I weigh in every Monday. I’ve been weighing in every Monday for years now and that’s also my surgery day (8/6). So far every week is going well. I would like to try to weigh in once a month but that may be a little hard.

For a while on here they had Weigh- In Fridays, don't know if that fell by the wayside or what? Since my surgery day is a Wonder Wednesday, I will be a Wednesday Girl! Maybe be brave and do it next week or the 29th, certainly will report it in on my😷 surgery day.

I am 3 weeks post-VSG. I weigh every morning because I know this period will be a time for the most steady weight loss. It is thrilling to see the scale go down. Even if it is in ounces and not pounds every morning. But I won't forget the advice my doctor gave me. Plateauing happens. When it does, skip the scale. He said it was just the body adjusting itself to rapid weight loss and don't let these times discourage me.

Everyday. I need the accountability in my life.

I'm wondering how often everyone is weighing them selves?

I waited a week to look (this morning) after my surgery. I found the number exciting, but I know it wont always be this substantial. . .

Does getting on the scale daily/weekly/ect get anyone down?
Or do you find it motivating?

Is there a sweet spot frequency wise?

I weigh in everyday... i'm a little neurotic about it, I probably shouldnt but I do.... I do it every morning as they say first thing in the am is always your lowest.

I weigh every day, but only track max 2 times per week. And if my weight has gone up, I stall weighing myself

I weigh myself every Monday morning and write it down in a spreadsheet. Most weeks, I have lost a bit but sometimes I’m up a few pounds. I try to focus more on non scale victories.

Most days. First thing in the morning after taking care of business. But if I forget no biggie.

I have a daily ritual of waking up, go to the restroom and then weigh myself. It keeps me motivated and excited to continue working towards my goals :)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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
