Don't weigh or measure yourself too often. It's discouraging to see the number on the scale go up when you thought it would go down. It's even worse when the tape measure goes in the wrong direction. These things can cause you to feel defiant and perhaps justify to yourself why the diet isn't worth the effort and deprivation. If you must weigh yourself, do it once a week on the same day and at the same time. I weigh myself every Wednesday morning right after I wake up and go to the bathroom. I choose Wednesday so that it will be far enough away from the effects of my Saturday evening normal foods.
