[QUOTE="sno0opy, post: 2155053, member: 513948"] My view is that there is no point weighing at a higher frequency then once a week. My weight can vary wildly day to day, but over the course of weighing in the same time every week you get a good picture of the over all trend. 1.5lbs is about 650g, that is not far off one pint of water. How much you drink, when you last went to the bathroom, the food you had for the proceeding 2 or 3 days as it moves through your system. These all change your weight hugely day to day. You can go for a run and sweat off 1lb or more of water, but you might have only achieved a few grams of genuine weight loss. Measure weekly at a specific time and routine to get your average.
