I only weigh once a week because of fluctuations in the week. If my weight went up in the week I found it could derail my week… 

Everyday when am on a healthy diet Now am very bad so I stopped weighing myself 

Once a week or it becomes an obsession, good luck xx 

weekly, we do have daily weight variations so once a week does work for me.  

I do the same and it keeps me on track 

Weekly on Fridays! That way if I have a fun weekend I have rest of week to make up for it 😅 

Thank you everyone! Haha Fridays does sound like a good idea, i might start doing that instead of Mondays :p 

Weighing daily set me back a lot;I found. So have now decided to weight every fortnight midweek..first weigh in is next Wednesday..wish me luck lol 

same morning onces per week  

Once a month  

im weighing myself every month 

i was doing weekly, then when I knew I had over eaten in the week I didn't weigh. I have not been strict enough with what I am eating so now I am trying daily to hold. myself more accountable. My biggest issue is I seem to comfort eat alot in the evening when I am watching TV. 🙄 

Weekly. Good luck 

weekly 

Once a week (Sunday's first thing) 

Once a month. Another variant cause a psychological problems for me :( 

Weekly. In the morning, before breakfast 

Weekly. Enough time to notice a difference... Enough time to celebrate a loss or rectify a gain. 

Almost everyday when I wake up… it helps keep myself a bit more accountable and motivated to make good choices! 

I think everyone needs to decide this for him-/herself. I´d say if you´re easily thrown off/demotivated by the occasional weight gain, that might not even necessarily be explained by what you ate / not ate, or did / not did the day before, I´d say it´s probably better to do it weekly. But always under the same conditions, meaning in the morning after going to the bathroom, before eating or drinking anything. Personally, I´m impatient :) and I want to know and observe how my body behaves, and do it daily. Sometimes I have up to 1.5 kg more from one day to the next, but either I know eg. that after 2 days of fasting I have eaten now, and my body stores more water again, I´m fine with it. Or even if I don´t understand it, I say "ok, we´ll see about tomorrow".. and let it do what it needs to do, while still mostly following the protocol, while also still allowing myself the occasional (moderate) pig-out.. I accept that what I´ve put on over decades, cannot be (reliably) undone within weeks, and don´t stress over the ups and downs too much, as long as the long-term trend look fine. I hope that makes sense
