How often do you weigh?

[~Jayne~]

Ok Girls, let me have it!!!!!

Please share with me how often you jump on the scales? Do you weigh weekly, fortnightly, monthly (I think Cohen's Lifestyle Clinic does this?).

The reason I ask, I have become fixated!!! I am weighing myself morning AND night!!!

I just can't shift off this plateau that I have got stuck on, no matter how much I try, or don't.

My 'official' weigh day is Thursdays, & I know I should only weigh on this particular day, but I don't. It's getting ridiculous!

Thanks in advance!

Once a week, on a monday for the summer health thread

I only weigh every few weeks at my dads as his scales are most favourable
I was getting to dissapointed in myself weighing all the time so I told myself I can only use dads

step away from the scales! i weigh in weekly - i actually get the trainer to weigh me at the gym & try not to think about it the rest of the week. for a while DP hid my scales & just brought them out once a week because i was obsessed.

do you measure yourself? could be another way to see some change - maybe your shape is changing if not the weight?

Fortnightly. On a Monday Get off the scales Jayney poo

You girls are all so disciplined!!!! Dang it, I'm really going to try. I am really going to slog my guts out & not step on the scales til next Thursday & hopefully I'll get a great surprise...............

Once a week, on a Wednesday morning, before breakfast and after going to the loo.

Friday mornings DH & I weigh ourselves and compare weights. I do sometimes weigh other days, but don't count these to DH ... I do use the water % part of our scales after hot days to make sure I'm nicely hydrated.

Ha ha, then I'm as fixated as you!
I'm doing weight watchers, have been since September. I found it helped keep me on the straight and narrow and now I can't help myself.
Mind you, I don't get too distressed about what the scales tell me, which kind of makes me wonder why I bother weighing myself so often.

Probably no more than weekly would be a "healthy" thing to do

[~Jayne~]

Ok, so I have packed my scales away into the dark depths of my bathroom vanity & they will not see the light of day until Thursday...............

Kazbah _ What water % thingy? This sounds interesting!!!

I weigh most days, but only because I seem to be magically losing weight atm and I like it! If I am going the other way then I like to avoid the scales.

I weigh daily (in the morning) - how else would I know if what I'm doing (calorie intake wise / exercise wise) is actually working. It helped me learn about how my body loses weight most effectively - I found out heaps by making small adjustments based on those numbers.

I'm a personal trainer / fitness instructor too, and it goes against pretty much all of the literature out there, I know.

BUT, if I didn't weigh daily, I doubt I would have lost the amount of weight I did in the time I did, and healthily!

I get DH to hide scales....so Monday morning here

[blessedatlast]

Weekly.. I'm a Thursday!

[MrsBexie]

I weigh myself like 20 times a day... Anytime I go to the toilet or go into the bathroom I jump on.
I am an obsessive weigher.
