    Best day to weigh?

    I've been hmmming and ahhhhing about trying a different group since joining my current group as although its nice enough I don't feel that I fit in that well and that theres much inspiration when I have stayed which could just be me of course! I end up not staying to group most weeks as don't feel its worth it because when I have stayed I haven't felt comfortable asking for the advice or whatever I need.
    This group is on a Thursday which fits in quite well with the families commitments etc and looking around the other groups on a Thursday are a bit later starting which wouldn't work as well I don't think. The other day I could maybe do is a Tuesday.

    I used to weigh in on a Tuesday before and didn't find it too bad but now I quite like weighing on a Thursday as it gives me time to catch up after the weekend as have developed a bit of a habit of being naughty at weekends

    I'm wondering if the thought of weighing on a Tuesday would help break this habit or not.
    What are other peoples thoughts about best days to weigh etc?
    Also spotted that there is a group where theres a male c and though it would be a bit of a drive I'm intrigued to see if it would be much different with a male c!

    Hi Emsie, I actually weigh in on a Monday! I think its the best day of the week personally for me, besides commitments to other things. I think it "keep you good" over the weekend knowing the dreaded day is looming ever closer. Just a personal thought, it works for me! Hope you start to feel better about group

    Yeah I'm thinking it might be worth me trying a Tuesday group again to see if it could help me break this cycle! Its nice sometimes to have a bit of a buffer till weigh day but doing it every week I'm not getting anywhere just doing damage and undoing it!

    I must admit, I WI on a Thursday evening, and when I was looking around for a group chose that
    1) I use weekly syns (whilst I'm still losing) and use a fair proportion of those Fri night
    2) good shopping night, so I have loads of fresh & tasty stuff over the weekend

    Whichever day you choose, it's still 7 days between WI
    But, yes, maybe you just need a change of class/consultant. - good luck

    Thank you and yes it is still the 7 days but maybe it might alter what I do on those days because at the moment I'm not actually staying on plan for the 7 days and maybe this change would help me behave

    I am actually thinking about moving back to Tuesday weigh ins myself Emsie. Whilst I love my Saturday morning group, I do find its easier to have the weekend off & justify it on the basis I have the rest of the week to recover any damage. I always managed to stick to it better when I weighed in on a Tuesday.

    In fact, I think I'm going to let my consultant know now. I am on the social team at Saturday group so it's a much bigger commitment than just turning up for IT, and i'm out all saturday morning, but if I give her a few weeks notice hopefully she can get cover.
    I'm doing a sponsored weight loss for the Walking with Giants Foundation. Help me out if you can!

    Mines a Monday night and it certainly makes me feel more accountable!

    Male C could be quite good too - but that's a personal thing I guess? X

    I am also on the social team so the commitment is there to go every week, although at target I think the commitment has helped me stay within target band. Monday is definately the best W I day for me. When I did S W years ago the W I day was also Monday.
