How often should I weigh?

I have been thinking about this. Since we don't really own a scale right now, I don't have a whole lot of choices. But I plan on buying one with part of our tax return. My husband doesn't want a cheap scale he wants a nice one.

Here is something I found on another web site that kind of goes along with my thoughts on weighing.

Weigh as often as you like! Some diet gurus will recommend that the Dieter weighs no more than once a month or once a week. Why? If you want to weigh, then weigh!

Some of the 'Diet Logic' behind the less frequent weigh-in's is that if you don't see a smaller number on your scales, you won't get depressed and get off your diet. However, if you're dieting, you need to know where you are. If you discover that your dieting isn't rendering the results you expected, you need to act as soon as possible to polish your Diet Plan.

If you prefer to only weigh once a month, then only weigh once a month.

Dieting is a very personal thing, and only you have the exclusive power to set the pace!
