How much does your WEIGHT CHANGE day-to-day?

[AviatorTom]

I've been monitoring my weight recently, so I've been weighing myself every day for the past 2 months, almost always first thing in the morning, after getting out of bed. I'm a bit surprised that my weight sometimes changes by as much as 4 pounds (~2 kg) up or down some days, though it usually doesn't change by more than 2 pounds (~1 kg). On one day, I weighed 6 pounds (~3 kg) more than the previous day (I had a large dinner the previous night!). My weight rarely stays the same from one day to the next.

Since I weigh about 200 pounds (~90 kg), that's a 1-2% change in weight every day.

How much do you think your weight changes day-to-day?

It's recommended that fuel to regular fluctuations in weight that you just get weighed once per week at as close to the same time as possible on yhe same day of the week preferably after you've used the toilet and and had a shower so you're still not dressed to get the most accurate weight reading.

Usually varies by about 5lbs. It has been higher on average since I've been taking creatine for instance.

Any weight change on that scale is down to water loss/retention or a good bowel movement. Too much salty food and I pile on the water weight. It's why I don't get dieters who get excited when they lose half a pound.

Day-to-day, no idea.

I'm losing about 1/2-2kg per weighing if I'm not careful. Gaining the same amount when I do well.

I weight myself weekly.

no idea whatsoever... but it must be the regular for any person... lol

[Apple1996]

a lot especially if it's near my period I can easily gain 5-10 pounds and lose it the next day

My weight fluctuates quite during the holidays. Except for this year if fluctuates about 1lb to 5 lb. I also noticed that if I'm overweight I have a hard time breathing. To control that I must monitor my intake.

sometimes as much a 5 pounds but mostly a pound or two.

[SEXGODPEDOMASTER]

2-4 lbs if a normal day can lose 7 lbs and gain 9 lbs

[OlderAndWiser]

Never more than two pounds in a day.
