Is It Healthy to Step on the Scale Every Day?

Measure/Weigh Yourself

While it is easy to think of monitoring and tracking as optional tools, or even as strategies that only certain types of people would want to use. However the research is consistent that monitoring and tracking weight are linked to more success with weight loss. You might want to log your:

• Food: what, when, and how much you eat and drink.
• Activity: how long, and what you do.
• Weight: a weekly weigh-in at the same time of day on the same day each week is most accurate.

While you can use an old-fashioned notebook or spreadsheet, you can also look for a health app that makes tracking and logging weight easier.
