But the question arises when is the best time to take weigh yourself? Is it the morning or evening? If you have any such questions, you are in the right place. Today, we are here to tell you the best time to weigh yourself and why.
According to fitness experts, the best time to weigh yourself is every morningafter you finish your morning rituals. That reason for that is because your weight fluctuates throughout the day usually every time you eat and drink or go to the bathroom.
You may noticea slight increase in weight every time you have a meal and a slight drop in weight every time you jog or have an intense workout session
Weighing yourself any other time of the day will never provide an accurate reading. But when you wake up in the morning your body was at its stationary position. No work done, no calories consumption or anything. So, it is the best time to weigh yourself and track your progress.
Hence, weighing yourself at the same time daily would give you more accurate results.
Therefore, set a time and weigh yourself every morning after your morning rituals and follow this at the same time, every day.
