Daily Post--4/2/08

I weigh daily. I know I shouldn't, but I can't help myself. When I have a gain, I want to know immediately so I can get back on track right away.

I weigh myself once a day, first thing in the morning. I've calmed down a bit since buying a new scale and will only step on it once each day. I had a whole system worked out before, since I thought I had broken the scale when I was over the actual limit on it. I keep saying I should take measurements, but never have. ~jenny

I've taken my measurements MAYBE twice since surgery. Bad bad I know lol But, I do hop on the scale about once a week! Cheers!

I weigh myself at least a couple of times a week right after my shower.... I usually dont eat or drink anything before hand so that I have a true measurement of my weight.... I have never taken my measurements... I regret not doing that before surgery so I would have had a starting point but Im just happy the scale goes down!

I'm so addicted to the scale. I will weigh myself each morning and each evening. When I was on vacation and I didn't have a scale I was even so bad that I went to the store and stepped on a scale that I took out of the box. OMG...my name is Michelle and I'm an addict

A number of times during the day. I do not take measurments.

I weigh myself every day. I know that's not recommended in general, but it's what works for me. It keeps me honest, which is another motivator. I don't get down on myself if the scale goes up a bit, and I celebrate when it goes down. I don't do formal measurements often, I go more by how my clothes fit, which is why I don't get down on myself if the scale bumps up a bit, or stays in the same place for a while.

Most of the time I only weigh myself once a week on Friday's since I had my surgery on a Friday. I have gotten on the scale once in a while during the week but try hard not to. I have read several trains of thought on weighing daily. I've read that people that weigh daily keep their weight off better than people that weigh once a week. I too am one of those persons that knew when I was gaining weight I would stay off the scale and the weight just kept creeping up. My thought now is that I will try to weigh only once a wee****il I reach my goal and then to maintain my goal I will weigh daily. I did take my measurements the day before my surgery and I do them monthly on my surgerversary.

I weigh now when I think about it. Right after surgery I was weighing every day. I wander into the bathroom, do my morning stuff, strip and weigh myself. It got to be a pain because if one little thing is off I know it so I skip weighing. Now I weigh once maybe twice a week. Just when I think about it first thing. As for measurements. I know when the scale isn't moving the tape is I generally measure a couple of times a month if I think of it Lori who's lost over 5' around woot! lol

I weight myself at least every other day and I measure monthly on the 23rd, the date I had surgery! Laura
