I've found the most horrible thing I can do is try to weigh myself constantly.

Depending on the amount of liquid you bring in, the amount you eliminate from your system, and your food intake/exercise levels, your weight can vary wildly in the space of 24 hours.

As you yourself said, DC, looking at your weight and not seeing a positive result is an incredible downer, and it distracts you and can be very dangerous to your morale (which is important in any diet)

I force myself to one weigh in per seven days, and I set a time for it (currently, it's when I wake up on Sunday)
