How often do you weigh yourself?

Hi there,

Like the title says I was wondering how often everyone jumps on the scales?
I had my op Tuesday 16th Oct and I havent dared yet as I am still really swollen around all my inciscions and I know that I will just be soooooo stressed after a week of wanting to eat my own feet if the scales havent budged.
What is the best time gap so that you can see a steady progression without imploding through stress????

Nina xx

Nina,
I have become a scale addict, weighing myself every 2 days...LOL
As long as the needle keeps moving, the scale is safe. If it stops just one time....it is history

Daily, religiously. And I log all my food online. And I compare the caloric intake (and type of intake) with the scale results. You wanna know why you are or are not losing? It's there in black and white and you can't sit there (like I hear some folks on this forum do) and go "Gee, it's been a year and I only lost 30 pounds....I can't understand why!" (people often want to think that it's that magic "bad karma" in the sky out to get them personally and make sure they are the ONLY one this has ever happened to...they're just cursed...exempt from the rules of physics, cause and effect...kindof takes the responsibility off their heads....)This is science, pure and simple. As much as we don't want to hear it, there is a valid reason why we lose and quit losing, which puts the "X" right back on OUR foreheads to get the job done....or not. I've been with my head in the sand for 25 years. Time I met my monster head on. Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer. Me and my scale are one.
