Is anyone else a SERIAL weigher?

[3106Catherine]

Hi, my names Catherine and I'm a serial weigher I do sw at home and weigh myself every morning. I always have done when on plan and find it keeps me on track rather than demotivate me. I have been known to weigh in the evening before bed but try to avoid it!

Guys, I've had a horrific 2 days...drank my weight in vodka last night and then went for a hangover munch today. Genuinely too many syns to count, as I'm a serial weigher but log Sunday's weight, I'm wondering, based on your own personal experience...how long after you've overindulged (had a bad few days/week) does it show on the scales for YOU?

I know everyones different but I'd like something to go on.

Have you ever had a bad few days and still had a loss that week or the week after?

 

[3106Catherine]

For me it's 48hours later I use my syns weekly, weigh in on Thursday, use majority of syns over weekend, usually show a small gain Monday or Tuesday and lose by Thursday. But I do stay within my syns for the week. Works for me, wouldn't work for everyone I guess

I weigh every morning, know I shouldn't but can't help myself!

 

[Jenna88]

Eeek, serial weighing is the devil (however it does also help me wind my neck in and prepare me a little for my official weigh in). On Monday and Tuesday of this week I'd stood on the scales first thing in the morning and they'd said 11'1 both days...today it's 11'4. No more vodka for meee!

I get weighed in class on a Tuesday ( obvioulsy I have weighed at home first though lol ) and I always go a bit mad on a Tuesdaynight - last night I surpassed myself though ! I live in Cornwall and at our monthly book group someone brought clotted cream and I had some wine and hot cross buns which I smeared with clotted cream.

Am one and a half Up today which I can handle - and without being too graphic all the wine and cream etc went straight through me.

I am definitely not weighing as often as I was but still cant bear to throw the scales out x

I weigh myself every morning and it generally is a positive thing for me. Helps me to stay on track I think. Know its daft though. ; ) x

No threw my scales away, I'm not going down that route, keep weighing myself makes me think plan not working as weight will ffluctuate and I have even not gone to a class because my scales have said not lost or gained when i have stuck to the plan. Silly I know, so that's why scales are banned in my house. I'll look forward to mu weigh in as well if not been weighed for a week. They really are your worst enemy so hide them away. X

I hate heartburn! I'd never had it until I was pregnant and it was horrible so I do feel for you

I'm the same, if there is a gain it makes me be better if anything

 

[Crazyarmywife]

positive thing for me to as it keeps me on track, i dont take the result as a definate till my actual weigh in day which i weigh at home monday. As far as my scales are concerned i have broke the stone. Into the 16 now but i wont take it as a definate till monday. I have tried going all week without weighing but its no good i am too weak ha ha

I weigh myself all day everyday despite my scales being a load of crabs and completely inaccurate! I think they roughly weigh half a stone lighter but its subject to change. I feel they indicate the general jist tho and continually step on. They are right in my living room by the sofa so should I leave the room... have a quick check! out of habit! doing it so much I rarely see a change (except for post meals/toilet stops) it's kinda frustrated. Im not sure if it motivates or the opposite. but I know I can't stop.. x

 

[Jenna88]

I moved mine to my room last week but they've swiftly gone back to the bathroom, meaning I only weigh when I'm in there. I'm the same in that they keep me on track, if I'm heavier than I'd like I really aim for a good day similarly if they've gone down I think YES I gotta keep on track. The one I probably pay most attention to is my early morning weigh, simply because my official weigh in is as soon as I wake up on a Sunday (whenever that may be)

i weight myself every morning, it keeps me in check and if i see it go up a 1lb or 2 during the week then it makes me push myself that bit harder. it also puts me in a good mood for the day as itreminds me how much weight i have lost

 

[Jenna88]

Stood on the scales when I woke up (like my Sunday weigh in) and was 11st 2. Just ate lunch and stood on was 11lbs 4. I know I'm heavier each time I eat but that seems like a big jump, serial weighing is not making me happy today!
