Don’t Overdo It!

A surefire way to get overly concerned with your weight is to weigh yourself too

often. Weigh yourself no more than once a week when you’re dieting. Though

it’s hard to stick to this pattern, it’s the best way to prevent unnecessary concern

with normal weight fluctuations, which are unrelated to your weight-loss efforts.

Regardless of your weighing habits, it’s important that you’re consistent.

Here are 5 rules for effectively monitoring your weight – weigh yourself:

• Once a week, on the same day of the week

• At the same time of day

• In the same place

• Wearing the same clothes

• Using the same scale

To keep track of your weight, record only one number for the week. This

will give you a clear picture of any trend your weight is following.

When You’re Maintaining Weight

Fluctuations in day-to-day weight tend to be smaller when weight is stable, so a

more frequent weigh-in pattern is helpful. To maintain a stable weight:

• Weigh yourself more often than once a week.

• Use the “5-pound rule” – research shows that people who keep weight within

a 5-pound range are more likely to maintain a healthy body weight over the

long term.

While a scale can be a useful tool on your weight-loss journey, it’s not in

and of itself a program for losing weight. Studies show that people lose

three times more weight on Weight Watchers than they do on their own.*
