Did you purchase a scale?
Is it healthy to weigh youself daily/weekly or just judge by how (loosely) your clothes fit?
Yeah, I have a digital scale. I’m probably the wrong one to ask about daily/weekly, though. I weigh daily. It’s about the only way I’ve been able to avoid having my weight shoot back up. I keep myself within a five pound range. If the morning number is low, I have certain food choices I can have. If it’s at the upper end of the five pounds, those choices are fewer.
Both. Weigh yourself a lot, multiple times a day at first if you can. Your weight actually fluctuates pretty dramatically through multiple cycles (daily, weekly and even monthly). Frequent weigh-ins will help you understand your body’s cycles, then you can figure out which parts of the cycle to focus on and you’ll know how much weight you’ve really dropped. For instance mornings I’m at my lightest for the day and Fridays I’m usually my lightest for the week, so I really pay attention to the Friday morning weigh-in (and these days that’s often my only weigh-in).
By the same token when you’re in a weight loss cycle you actually sometimes don’t lose weight but will lose girth. I actually went through an entire month when my weight wouldn’t budge, every morning was the exact same weight to the tenth of a pound, but I had to take two links out of my watch. I was burning fat but replacing the weight with muscle, which resulted in a loss of size but an immobile scale.
