Weigh Yourself Everyday. I know
many nutritionists, dietitians and what not say "Don't be a slave to
the scale." And that's good advice for when you first start losing
weight. Those first couple of weeks of weight loss can be frustrating.
You can go up and down, or not move at all. It is easy to get
discouraged. So yes, during those early weeks of weight loss I would
(if you can) keep your weigh-ins to once a week.
However, once
you lose the weight, weighing yourself everyday becomes a necessity.
Some of us become slack once we reach are goal weight. We go back to
our bad habits that made us fat to begin with. We don't notice how our
skinny jeans are getting tighter, or how are middle tends to be
expanding, and the next thing we know what was probably a five pound
gain turns into a twenty pound gain and we're right back where we
started.
For some of us, without a constant reminder of our
weight, we will always put the weight back on. Weighing yourself
everyday will help you maintain your weight. If you see the scale
creeping up then you know you need to makes some changes either by
exercising more or eating less. If hitting your goal weight and
maintaining your goal weight is a priority to you then becoming cozy
with your scale is the best way to make that happen.
