How often are you.........

weighing yourself at home ? ? I find that I am on the scale atleast once a day, if not more and it's driving me crazy LOL I need a new scale and was planning on buying one but am seriously thinking that I won't, then throw this old one away so I can't be so "obsessed" with getting on it LOL I am only 10days out yet, I get on there LOL Anyone else do this? ~~Rona

Hey Rona, I was weighing everyday for about the first month. Then I just understood that everytime I get on it, it would be down. so I only weight every otherday now....lmao I know I can't just weigh once a week....But that is just me... Ohh yeah pretty soon your weight might stand still....so don't be alarmed...everyone that I have talked to said that it is normal. I stood still for about a week and 4 days...then I dropped really fast....then I lose about a 1/2 to 1 lb/. a day.....Talk to you soon

I am an addict! I weigh myself twice a day. I've been stalled since Saturday and it's killing me!

I weight every morning before the shower. I lost a bunch in the 1st week, but have settled into a 1-1.5# per day loss. Today I hit 20# since surgery (yippeee!) and 53# overall. At this rate I'll be wearing those acid wash jeans from the 80's in no time!

I weigh first thing each morning. I call it my "naked women weigh in". That way no variables and I can track my true loss. I have been scale obsessed in the past so I hope I can relax once the weight loss slows......

I have not weighed myself at home but I think I will start weighing once a week. Roz

I too have "naked woman weigh-in" (love that!!) and weigh in once in the morning after I go to the bathroom and before a shower. I know that some days it will move and some days it won't, and that's okay with me, as long as the average is down and not up Inky

Yeah! to the naked women weigh in!!! We should call it NWWI !! I also weigh myself the same each am. I was losing very steady until 3 days ago, and now I see the scale starting to creep up. It scared me to death!!! I had a lab band 2 weeks ago and right now with all the swelling gone, I have no restriction. I also have started on soft food. It is amazing how your boby works to store food when it thinks you are starving!! I went from 500 cal/day to around 700 cal/day and now the weight goes up!! I know- be patient- it will come off, but it is VERY discouraging!!!! Lora

Lora ! Omgosh I am the same way. Altho I had the RNY, I feel no restriction -- I have been following everything to the "T" , I moved to stage 2 which upped my cals a little but now I see a stall... and the little that I thought I lost on monday came back by thurs. So how do we be patient? LOL ~~Rona

I weigh far to much too... I do the morning naked weigh, then the mid morning after breakfast weigh, the before lunch weigh, after lunch weigh, before dinner, after dinner, before bed. Think I have a problem?? :D I keep saying, "I'm not going to weigh for a week!" But I can never stay off of it. Amber 274/252/130 Visit my blog: http://workingongfreedom.blogspot.com
