Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group
Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.
When do you guys weigh yourselves? First thing in the morning, afternoon? I know that ideally you're supposed to weigh yourself at the same time and in the same clothes. I just ask because I always seem to weigh WAY WAY less first thing in the morning than I do if I hop on the scale just for craps and giggles later in the day. Not sure if that number is an accurate reflection of my weight or not.
Often through the week I will weigh myself at different times just to see, but I use my Mondays as my accurate weight and thats what I keep track of.
First thing in the morning, after I've peed, naked.
I do Wed. AM as a general rule. After I pee, but before I'm dressed :)
If you can handle weighing daily, then do it. If you get obsessed by the number, then you need to weigh once a week.
We have spent our lives beating ourselves up by the number on the scale. NO MORE!!!!!
