I weigh in at 9:15 am, after cardio and a little bit of water, but before my morning protein shake.

I weigh in first thing in the morning and whenever I feel like it throughout the day. I do a 'formal' weigh-in on Mondays for my ticker and on Fridays for the competition.

Morning, but you should only weight yourself once a fortnight really.

I weigh in first thing in the morning because that's when I'm the lightest.

with weighing in... to keep yourself motivated... you should weigh in at the same time on a regular schedule wearing the same thing (or nothing at all) that way you should see consistent results...

My doctor always says to weigh in first thing in the morning the same time every week. My weigh in time in always first thing (6:30 a.m.) on Friday mornings. Evidently you weigh more in the afternoons.

Hi Hi

Weird O_o I experiment, but I like either..

Weighing myself REALLY early.
Or Weighing myself around 8:00 p.m or so. (after my workout n such)

Eitherway you weigh yourself just base your weight off THAT

Even if your 180 in the morning and 183 at night.

Go off by 183 then =O (leasts that what I do)

haha now let me get to 180....><

XD

I weigh myself like 12 times a day...lol...
Always in the morning, after every meal/snack, and throughout the day, then right before I go to sleep.

I'm a bit obsessed no? :P

how often should I weigh myself?

I don't want to obsess over the number on the scale but every morning I have to see what i weigh! is this counter productive?

All you are going to do is play minds games with yourself as each day your body weight can fluctuate in the range of 1-3 lbs depending on hydration.

I'd suggest weighing in every 2 weeks to get an accurate measurement of progress.

Every 2 weeks

Anything more than once every 2 weeks will drive you nuts. Don't be a slave to those pesky numbers. Judge your success by the way your clothes fit, the way you feel, the change in your eating habits, and compliments from others. The scale is not the only way to track your progress!

Then I'm the lone addict speaking up

There are some studies that suggest people who weigh daily tend to lose more weight and are able to keep weight off longer then people who weigh daily.

That being said - there are studies to prove just about any position

If the fluctuations of weighing in daily drives you crazy, don't do it. It's not worth the possible 'demotivation' you can get from it.

If those daily fuctuations don't bother you, then there is nothing wrong with daily weighing. However, it is the downward progression we're generally wanting to see, and that takes time. So it might be better to take mental note of a daily weighing, but actually write your weight down weekly.

We're all very individual, and what motivates me might hinder someone else, you have to find what works best for you

I really think it's a personal matter.

I can see the benefits of both. Personally, I can not weigh myself everyday. That fluxuation is enough to make me get a little down and that influences my eating and exercising.

I have even lost sleep thinking about weighing in the morning! Sad, but true.
And for me, it's not about the numbers so much as it is about my size and healthy.
