Do you weigh yourself every morning?

Yes, I've always made it a habit to weigh myself every morning, no clothes on. I jst feel that this gives me a realistic idea of where I am. Do I make my weight a reference for what I'm going to eat during the day? Sometimes :) But more often than not, I just try to eat healthily as a general rule of thumb/

I don't think that's a good idea, because you can lose or gain a pound or two just based on how much water you drink. I think it's best to weigh yourself only once a week. This is what we do in weight watchers anyways. It's called the weekly weigh in. If I weighed myself everyday I would tend to get depressed because I wouldn't see myself losing anything at all day by day.

No, I dont weigh myself every day, only once a week. That's because I know that your weight can fluctuate up to 5 lbs either way due to water retention and I know if it says I gained a pound or two it would just frustrate me!

I find that it makes me more frustrated when I'm constantly looking at that scale. A nurse told me that if I pay less attention to that number everyday, then I'll be less stressed about my weight. It was hard at first, but then gradually I let go and paid more attention to what I was eating and my workout routine. It wasn't a concious effort, I just found myself choosing better food and enjoying the burn of a workout more. If my weight fluctuated during the week, I didn't notice. I just noticed that I was feeling better, not so stressed all the time about how much I weighed that day.
