How often do you weigh yourself after WLS?

[Tufflaw 463]

I know it's not recommended but I weigh myself every single day, it's part of my morning routine now, and I track it in MyFitnessPal so I can keep an eye on the charts.

This is really bad but I'll usually weigh myself at night too (I don't track it though), I've gotten good at predicting what I'll weigh in the morning based on my night time weigh-in (I usually drop about 2 lbs. overnight).

I know the stalls and fluctuations drive some folks nuts but it works for me.

I weigh four times weekly (Mon Tue Thu and Sat) and track my average rather than individual weights.

I don't, mainly because my bathroom scale doesn't handle going above 300 all that well, heh - most of my weigh-ins have been at either my PCP's office or the weight-and-wellness center where my surgeon is based. They properly calibrate their scales.

The FITINDEX and Renpho smart scales (both about $25 US on Amazon) do well up to their limit of 400. I find I am consistently within a pound or two of my doctor's scale, which could just be clothing.
