Heather said: "Weighing yourself more than once a day might drive you nuts. Once a day at the same time or once a week might be a little healthier."

Darren said: "What you could do is weight yourself 3 times a day, and then average it. It seems a bit excessive, though. Weighing yourself daily is frustrating because the weight tends to fluctuate so much."

Try and do every weigh-in at the same time and excessively weighing yourself is bound to just get you upset...Like you said, it could be water weight, the weight of everything you ate that day, muscle gain...numerous things. Don't let that scale get you frustrated...pay attention to how you feel and how your clothes fit. :)"

klynnfosh said: "Well it is normal to weigh more as the day goes on. You need to weigh yourself no more than once a day and it should be first thing in the morning and use that figure and that one alone for your true weight. You are going to see ups and downs according to the food and liquids in your body at any given time. So start fresh each day and you should be at your lightest at that time."
