To get a real idea of ​​your weight, it is best to respect a certain frequency and a few conditions.

While monitoring your weight is important, it shouldn't become an obsession. It is therefore not necessary to weigh yourself every day. In fact, your weight changes several times in a single day. This can be linked to diet, hydration, physical activity, emotions, hormones, etc. For women, it is therefore not recommended to get on the scale every day. approaching the rules because there is a stronger water retention at that time. Weighing should also not take place after a sports session, because with what has been eliminated and sweating, the result will be below reality.

There are also some misconceptions to avoid: since muscle weighs more than fat, it is indeed possible to gain weight by doing sport. You also need to know how to use your scales properly. It is important to step on the scales slowly with your feet flat on each side. Then, the weight must be evenly distributed between both legs. Above all, you must remain upright while weighing and avoid leaning your torso too much to look at the dial, as this could change the figures. A quick glance will suffice.

It is also preferable to always get on the same scale, because from one device to another the other, the settings may be different, not giving the same result. Once the bathroom scale has been chosen and properly adjusted, it should no longer be moved and also avoid placing it on a carpet. Finally, the weighing must be done undressed to remove the weight of the clothes.

These prerequisites established, it is recommended not to weigh yourself more than once a week. Once every fortnight would even be sufficient as long as it is always on the same day and in similar conditions. The day and exact moment when it is also very important to weigh yourself to get a better idea of ​​your true weight. According to dietician Jeremy Gorskie in a video made with Michel Cymes, one of the most inadvisable days to weigh yourself would be Monday. The weekend is a time of relaxation where meals can be more substantial, or even preceded by a small aperitif. It is therefore not advisable to get on the scales right after, because there will be a little more water retention.

The ideal is therefore to choose a day away from weekends, rather Thursday or Friday and not to rely on the weight obtained after meals. Regarding the time, it depends on your wake-up time, because you should weigh yourself in the morning to be fasting. Going to the bathroom beforehand is even better, because absolutely nothing will weigh extra on the scale. So waking up, going to the bathroom, weighing yourself on a Thursday or Friday morning, every two weeks seems to be the ideal routine to have the most accurate view of your weight possible.
