How often do you weigh yourself??

[gingerbug 3]

I agree!.. In the past I always weighed in once a week.. but my father (an engineer).. has always told me that weighing in once a week misses the patterns.. you need to note your weight everyday to see the pattern emerge for weight loss. My Mum loses 1kg every 10 days (fluctuating daily).. my Dad loses 1kg every 7 days.

I used to get SO mad at Weight Watchers because I would always stay the same or gain!.. but when my father explained this basic fact.. I was stunned!.. I was weighing in on my heavy day!..

I personally now weigh everyday. And like other bandsters think of it as assisting me.. it is good to see little losses.. it makes the weigh in at the docs easier to bare when I have gained a little..

I will be watching my weight daily post op!.. and plotting my numbers on a graph!. .it will be very interesting to see a pattern develop!..

I think I know what you mean, I have even noticed patterns during the month. I gain 2 pounds every single month right when I ovulate and I lose those two pounds right before my period starts. I seem to lose the most amount of weight right when AF is winding down and the week leading up to ovulation again. I used to get annoyed that I would gain 2 pounds every month with no explanation till I realized it kept happening and it wasn't something I was doing wrong, just normal fluctuations in my body weight.
