question about weighing...

ok so i am pretty good about weighing i weigh once a week . on monday morning usually but i had seen that some say weighing in the morning is not good,,,, i was wondering why this is , and if its bad when would be a better time during the day to weigh in ?? Thanks, Danielle

Hi Danielle, I always thought the morning was the best time to weigh yourself. But as long as you weigh yourself at the same time of day each time it should be pretty accurate. Good luck. Annie

I have been told that weighing your self in the morning is the best time cos you are at your lightest Just make sure you weigh your self around the same time of day and you should be fine Bye Julian

Hopefully you are keeping a food log...what does this have to do with weighing in you ask?...Well, I think it is as important to check in with yourself as it is to weigh yourself. Come up with some questions - How do I feel - How was my energy today - Did I get my meals in today - Did I eat what I was supposed to - Did I get my exercise in - Is my pain better - Was it easier to get out of bed - What have I noticed - ... Whatever the questions are, just checkin with yourself and write your answers down. Seeing an improvement in health is also very important. I see a lot of people that end up with the attitude that this surgery was cosmetic surgery and I see a lot of those same people struggle. Remember what your goals are. Let me give you an example that kept me going this week when the scale let me down. For the first time in a long time, I can see the bottom of my steering wheel. If I didn't notice that, I could have spent the entire week bummed out about the scale! Dave Boston Open RNY-041505-488/423
