Query Regarding Weight loss
My wife (29 years old) started weight loss program recently. She is weighing herself almost every day, sometimes twice in a day. And she gets upset after not seeing the desired results or numbers. I would like to know whether it's a good approach to weight so frequently or not. If not, then ideally how often we should check our body weight?
Thanks in advance..!!

Daily weight check is not right weekly basis can check ur weight.
For reducing weight follow three main things like healthy diet, exercise and brisk walk morning and evening.
Take high fiber food in ur diet.

Hi there! completely understands her concerns & excitement to lose weight (excess fats) but it takes time to see results on weighing scale. When she hav enrolled for the program i am sure they must have informed when she is suppose to check the weight. if not then it is not correct deal which she have enrolled.
She should check her weight on empty stomach when she started her diet and again she can check her weight post 7 days. As body composition changes after every 10-12 days that means body needs diet changes.
Next Steps
if you have any further queries you can get in touch with us.

Hello,
Losing weight takes time, weigh after every 3-4 days early in the morning at the exact same place. Try wearing same clothes or light clothes while weighing.

Hello practo user,
Treat the scale as your friend and not as foe...
Regularly weighing yourself very often means more burden than benefit, because your scale shows only a number that doesn't take a lot of other variables such as muscle mass, hydration and even hormones into account.
Daily fluctuations in weight is common and if you are feeling heavy today than yesterday doesn't mean that your program is not working.
Monthly variations is also common and natural in menstruating women.
Next Steps
A better option is to weigh yourself weekly and pay closer attention to the fit of your clothes rather than number on the scale.

Hi there!
I understand your concern but would like to suggest that one must not check weight everyday. However if she is not able to loose weight there might be some medical issues related to the same.
Also, to facilitate weight loss one must do regular detoxification, to flush out toxins from the body and remove free radicals that are preventing her from weight loss
Better we discuss on chat about the same.
