- When should I be weighing myself? I've read a lot about how I should weigh myself atleast 2-3 times a week but is there a specific time or after a specific event? Normally I weigh myself after I eat at night but I do that every time so as to remain consistent.
- What's the deal with scales? I have one analog scale that I've had for awhile and it currently says that I weight 200 pounds. My digital scale says that I weigh 204.5 pounds and I just got that one a few weeks ago. The digital one seems pretty inconsistant though because I've stepped on it and it said one thing and then changed when I stepped on again a minute later.

ive wondered about the water thing too,though to be honest I drink nothing but water anyway now and ive got used to it after 6 weeks
as far as weighing yourself if you do it under the same conditions it dosent matter when,but you should be lighter after you have been asleep
Scales are just a pain in the backside I tend to look for shifts of about 5 lb rather than relying on one number.Last week throughout a day I weighed anywhere from 305-313 depending on the time and day,this week I weigh anything between 299-307,as long as the trend is downward dont worry too much about a deadset number.
I use a digital scale and I dont like it,for some reason I dont like just seeing a number pop up I'd rather see a needle go round ,pathetic I know. but by the same token I cant see the point of paying £20 for a good set of scales just to make me feel better and make up for my insecurities, its not like another scale is going to tell me I'm suddenly 250 and the digital one was lying
