Should You Weigh Yourself Every Day? Video Blog Coming soon directed by Robert Hayman




Remember, muscle burns more then fat and its heavier because it holds more water. Look at how much larger the fat is compared to the muscle and the still weighs the same. When you start weight training you burn more calories, become stronger, look more tone, your weight on the scale will be higher but your inches will be lower. The scale is just one way to guide your goals but not the best way and its not telling you how fit you really are.
     It’s normal for your body weight to fluctuate a little.  Changes in weight can be based on numerous factors including hydration (loss or gain of water weight) and contents of your digestive system (how recent was your last meal, and yes how recent your last bowel movement was).    
    •  Weighing yourself “officially” once a week, on the same scale, under the same conditions.
    • Instead of weighing yourself...do a body fat measurement only once a week 
    • Better yet... what I do more then anything is to measure myself with a measuring tape and document it every week or two.
    • Keeping an eating diary helps a lot too
