weighing yourself everyday!! omg, it seems like i step on the scale at least 4 to 5 times a day...its insane!! i really need to try and get in the habit of weighing myself once a week....but its so hard!! :cry_smile::thumbup:

im just on the pre op diet and I find myself weighing once a day. I think im excited and want to see that im going in the right direction. I will have to stop that though becasue it can have a negative affect on my attitude if I dont see a change.

I have always had this problem. I weigh at least twice a day. It keeps me on track for the day.

I weigh myself in the AM (I like the result best lol) During this week I admit to adding an evening weigh in as well lol

When I'm sticking to a diet, I weigh every morning. When I fall off the wagon, I can go months without weighing. Right now I'm weighing every morning and sighing because I'm in Bandster Hell!!!! :crying: grrrrrr.... (That's me and my stomach making that noise!!!)

I'm right there with you Ann. I weigh everyday. and I am also in Bandster hell, and it s*cks. It's gotten to the point that I get really excited about a 2 oz weight loss, even though the whole number hasn't changed. I have been at this weight for two weeks now. UGH!!!!!!

I weigh myself every morning, after I go to the bathroom, after I get out of the shower, before I go to bed, and even after sex.

I am so lucky... My scale broke!! :crying: i weigh myself at my moms once or twice a week... so go ahead everyone throw the scale out the window (litterally!!) and it will be a problem no more!! LMAO

amy

I weigh dailey morning and evening

I dont think weighing in multiple times a day is a bad thing, I can keep track of what works for me and what doesn't. If I go a week or two without weighing myself and if I gain weight I will not know what caused it.

I am used to doing it this way, as I was a wrestler and boxer and had to make weight. I learned by weighing myself multiple times daily what I could eat and couldn't to make my weight class.

I weight myself monring ,AM ,afternoon ,every time i go to the bathroom. I cant stop! I had my Realize band on 4/23/2009 and i have only lost 21lbs! i had my first fill on 5/26/2009,i am on a liquid diet coz i am so desparate to get under 200! i am at 225-226 now and i weigh myself all the time!

I weigh myself daily when I'm "on track" and expecting to see good results. I don't get discouraged if it doesn't move every day, though, so it's not a bad obsession.

What I find is that in the periods where I'm NOT stepping on the scale, it's because I know I'm off the wagon - I know that the numbers will go up and I'm sort of in denial about it. (Well, not really in denial, but not wanting to face it in terms of the realities of the numbers).

I'm A-OK with weighing every morning.

I used to be like that (weighing all day, every day) until I had my surgery (1 year ago). At that time I promised myself I would only weigh at my monthly Doctor appts. I have kept that promise. I'm glad I did. It is much less frustrating for me. I'm now at goal (actually less than goal) and have just now bought a new digital scale to weigh on weekly. (because I now only have to see the doctor every 2 months and want to keep a closer eye on my weight).

I know myself, and I get too obsessed with the numbers, so weighing myself daily is just toooo much for me.

To each his own. Do what works for you.

I did that on my pre op diet. It got so bad, that when I had my surgery last week, I asked my sister to hide my scale from me until Monday mornings. That's when I will weigh myself from now on. Otherwise, I'd be on it every hour!

I guess if you don't get upset by what you see maybe its ok to weigh all the time. But if it ruins your mood maybe find a trusted soul to keep it except one a week. I am also a scale whore and I'm thinking about asking my DH to keep it somewhere I cant find it because I do get kind of ruined if it goes up a pound from day to day even though I know its meaningless...probably just too much salt on the rim of the glass the night before!

probably just too much salt on the rim of the glass the night before!

That's what I'm talking about!
