I am committed to weighing in once a week, on Saturday. There is nothing special about Saturday except I get to sleep in a bit before I hit the scale. Several mornings I have been tempted to run downstairs and weigh myself because my shirt seemed a bit baggier than usual or my belt buckle slipped into the next hole. I resist. I much prefer the greater difference a week makes than the smaller difference that a day can make. I derive considerably more motivation when the scale tells me I have dropped 2 or 3 pounds in a week than if it says I went down a few ounces since yesterday. This also removes the disappointment if the scale should happen to say I gained an ounce or two since yesterday - always a distinct possibility. A little water retention goes unnoticed at the weekly weigh-in but could shake my faith if I was on a daily weigh-in routine. Hey, whatever works - WORKS!!
