Should I weigh myself everyday If I was get asked should I weigh myself one more time, lol. In all seriousness, to day I will discuss if you why the intricacies of this age old question. All numbers are subjective, and not a true indicator of overall health. For example you can be 5% body fat and anorexic. You can be 150 lbs and healthy or  you can be 150 lbs and obese. Why do we use the scale as the primary means for determining our  health? We are taught through the media, that you need to be a certain weight or look a certain way. Pause for a second . If you googled the life story of any celebrity you will see that 9/10 they were made fun of for the defining features you love and adore. So already, with that being said we know that beauty is subjective and in the eye of beholder. However when it comes to how we see ourselves, our vision is skewed and are self critical. Health conditions Sure numbers like the one on the scale or BMI can be a good indicator for our  health. We can use these numbers to determine we are at risk for certain cancers, diabetes and heart disease. But most of us weight ourselves not for health concerns, but as an indicator of our beauty. yay or nay If you can weigh yourself everyday, without being overly critical or getting depressed, by all means do so. I personally prefer every 2-3 weeks, if you are doing everything you should you can expect positive changes. The protocol In the morning on an  empty  stomach and after using the bathroom. Keep your scale on a solid surface not carpet if possible. A digital scale is a must, step on and off to make sure you get the same number. If not then you need a new scale or batteries.
