Why you should change your weigh-in day
If you’re someone who weighs themselves regularly, you might want to consider changing the day you weigh yourself. Research has shown that there are certain advantages to weighing yourself on certain days of the week.
For example, a study from 2016 found that people who weighed themselves on a Saturday or Sunday were more likely to have successful weight loss than those who weighed themselves on a Monday. The study authors suggest that this may be because people are more likely to stick to their healthy habits on weekends, when they’re not working or juggling other obligations.
Another reason you might want to change your weigh-in day is if you tend to have fluctuating weight throughout the week. For example, if you usually weigh yourself on Mondays but find that your weight is always higher at the end of the week, you might want to switch to weighing yourself on Fridays instead. This way, you’ll have a better idea of how much weight you’ve actually lost over the course of the week.
Of course, there’s no one right day of the week to weigh yourself — it ultimately depends on what works best for you and your lifestyle. If you’re not sure when to start weighing yourself, try out different days of the week and see which gives you the most accurate and consistent readings.

The benefits of changing your weigh-in day
There are a few benefits to changing your weigh-in day. First, it can help you better track your progress over time. If you weigh yourself at the same time every week, you may not be getting an accurate picture of your weight loss (or gain). Second, changing your weigh-in day can help you stay motivated. If you’re getting tired of seeing the same number on the scale week after week, changing your weigh-in day can give you a fresh start. Finally, changing your weigh-in day can help you avoid plateaus. If you feel like you’re stuck at a certain weight, changing when you weigh yourself can help jump-start your weight loss again.
How often you should change your weigh-in day
Your weigh-in day is the day of the week that you measure your weight and enter it into MyFitnessPal. We recommend weighing yourself at least once a week, but you can change your weigh-in day as often as you like in the Weight section of your goal settings.
To change your weigh-in day:
1. Tap “Goals” in the bottom left corner of the home screen (the icon looks like a scale).
2. Tap “Edit” next to Weight.
3. Tap “Weigh In Day.”
4. Select the new day you’d like to weigh in on, then tap “OK.”
Why some people choose not to change their weigh-in day
There are a few reasons people might choose not to change their weigh-in day. Maybe they’ve been using the same app or scale for a while, and they don’t want to break the habit. Or, they might not be as interested in accuracy as they are in consistency.
If you fall into either of these categories, that’s totally fine! But if you’re someone who’s looking to be as accurate as possible with your weight tracking, then read on.

##Keywords:Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday
##Expansion:
Open the app and tap “More” in the bottom right corner. From there, tap “Settings” and scroll down to “Account Settings.” The second option under account settings is “Weigh In Day.” Tap that and select the day of the week you’d like to use as your weigh-in day.
Keep in mind that changing your weigh-in day will only affect future weigh-ins — it won’t change the date of any past weigh-ins. So if you want to be precise with your data, you may want to note down your weight on the old weigh-in day and input it manually on the new one.
What to do if you forget to change your weigh-in day
If you forget to change your weigh-in day in My Fitness Pal, don’t worry! You can easily adjust your weigh-in day by going to the “Settings” tab and updating your information.
The best time to change your weigh-in day
If you want to make a change to when you weigh in on Weight Loss Resources, the best time to do this is at the start of a new week.
We recommend you make a note of your current weight in your profile too, so you can keep track of any progress made.
How changing your weigh-in day can help you lose weight
If you find yourself struggling to lose weight or hitting a plateau, you may want to consider changing your weigh-in day. Studies have shown that where you place your weekly weigh-in can have an impact on your success.
For instance, people who weighed themselves first thing in the morning (after using the restroom) lost more weight than those who weighed themselves at night. This is likely because overnight our bodies tend to retain water, which can lead to a higher weight on the scale in the morning.
Additionally, people who weighed themselves more than once per week lost more weight than those who only weighed in once per week. This is likely because frequent weigh-ins help to keep you accountable and motivated to stay on track with your weight loss goals.
If you are looking to lose weight, we recommend weigh-in yourself first thing in the morning, after using the restroom, and try to do so at least two times per week.
The downside of changing your weigh-in day
If you attempt to change your weigh-in day in My Fitness Pal, you may be disappointed to find that you are unable to do so. The app does not allow for this flexibility, which can be frustrating if you have a weight goal that you want to meet or if you simply want to change the day of the week that you weigh yourself.
While there is no way to directly change your weigh-in day in My Fitness Pal, there is a workaround that you can use. By manually entering your weight for each day of the week, you can effectively change the day that your weight is recorded. This process takes a bit of time and effort, but it is the only way to change your weigh-in day in My Fitness Pal.
