when to weigh myself?

[Eligura]

Hi all,

Another post from me.. when i started atkins i weight myself in the morning and was 183. two days later (yesterday) i stepped on the scales in the evening and i was 185!! So should i weigh myself at the same time? ie. morning?

Thanks guys.

Yes you will generally always be lighter in the morning. Try and way on the same day at roughly the same time each week. That way it will help you keep a more accurate log.

I'd definitely weigh myself in the morning before eating anything.
you might be eating and drinking more or less on different days so imo what the scale shows in the afternoon or evening isn't 100% acurate.

It was a mistake for me to weigh in yesterday.
2 weeks stuck at 274, I got very disappointed.
Weight loss is not linear. I know, but after a whoosh 2 weeks, you get addicted, you think okay, i have found the fountain of youth diet, and its all smooth sailing, there will be bumps on the scale along the road.
I know my clothes are loser, and I know all about retaining fluids and waste before a weigh in , but It still bumed me out.
I was down all day.
So back to optimism today.
I have never had the hunger pains after induction that match my hunger feelings before I started induction on a low fat diet, so time to buck up, buckle up and get motivated.
Have a good day.
