Should you weigh yourself EVERY DAY to lose weight and keep it off? What does the science actually say about daily vs. weekly weigh-ins? After losing over 50 pounds on a GLP-1 and maintaining my weight loss for more than 3 years, I’m sharing what the research says, why your weight fluctuates, and how I use the scale to track progress without obsessing over every pound. I also talk about why body composition, fat loss, and muscle preservation matter more than the number on the scale!

As soon as I get up and go to the bathroom I weigh myself. And if I have a big bowel movement from my constipation I'll weigh after that too 😂
Juls!!! Another great video!! I have always been a daily weigher and tracker of all things!! We are so aligned as always!
I have the Hume scale and purchased it September 2025….I finally have 1 year's worth of data. 🎉❤
It's so impowering to get data that helps to understand all things weight loss and weight gaining ❤🎉
I weigh once a week, my logic is that the fluctuations are not always controllable and so it is a bit pointless to do it everyday. I agree with looking at trends …. But still dont see the point of daily weighing. But the maintenance programme was much more than weighing yourself everyday. And you dont put on 2lbs of fat in a day … I agree with regular checking but every day is not necessary for everyone. The bio-impedance scales we all use are also not that accurate in distinguishing fat and water. …….. However, I track my food everyday, both macros and calories, ……. Swings and roundabouts😂😂😂
Just today I made a post in another glp-1 group about my results from July to November. I had two pictures that showed only a 1 pound difference, but I had lost 3/4 inch on both my bust and hips and a 1/2 inch off my waist. I also was down 4.3% body fat and gained 3.7 lbs muscle mass. I am grateful for a smart scale because my weight has hardly changed at all since July.
I agree with everything you said in here. 😊
I weigh every am first thing. Data to use for fluctuations. I’ve gotten to know my body so well. I do fluctuate during week, but my lowest day is usually weigh in day (Day 7). But After shot day, my weight usually goes up a little next few days, then trickles back down by day 7.
I also take my travel scale on vac with me.
Leaving tomorrow for Disney World. Last time there 2021 was 225 lbs. CW: 151 lbs. (lost 101 lbs). 56 yrs old. 5’6”. Can’t wait to walk without pain and ride everything and fit better. 😊
I weigh daily. I’ve been on a GLP for 5.5 years now (was an early adopter), and weighing frequently has helped me a lot. It actually helped me to become less obsessed with the number, it’s just a check, almost like someone with diabetes doing their glucose checks. I’ve lost 100lbs and maintained it for 3+ years now, and I just recently upgraded to a RENPHO Morphoscan Aspire and LOVE the body comp reports. I had a DEXA in Feb, and used that data + the body comp scale to fine tune my workouts, and got my body fat % down from 28% to 24% in six months as a result (based on a second DEXA a few weeks ago). I know it’s not for everyone, but more data the better for me! Really enjoy your videos, btw (we are the same age, gender, height, and very similar weight 😊)
I weigh every Sunday, but I think I will create a log and do it everyday now. Good video.
I weigh myself every day after I use the bathroom and before my shower to stay aware of my body. I’m intuitive with my body and awareness of what I’m doing daily, to stay in touch with my gains and set backs and how I eat on daily basis to stay consistent.
Everyday for me and my behavioralist said it was okay and it helps me stay on track
I weigh myself every morning! Unless of course I forget to charge my scale lol
I enjoy the data and have been doing it for one year. Today is my one year anniversary taking a GLP-1!! so grateful for this medication! I’ve lost a little over 60 pounds and in maintenance ❤
I weigh myself everyday twice a day. I am not obsessed with the number.. I watch the trend. I know roughly what my weight will be in the am based on what I weigh before bed. I can look at what did I drink, how much did I drink, what food I ate, did I work out..did I poop? 😂 It's all a tool. I just started my journey… Only 5 weeks in. I just got myself a body composition scale. I know it's not 100% accurate but again.. I watch the trends. I was thin until my mid 20's….then gradually gained eight and have been obese now for many years. I'm 54, it's time to get things under control so I can live a longer healthier life. Love your content, Thank you for all the great info.
I do it everyday to keep myself accountable! 4 years in now!
