Patient education: Keeping track of your weight (The Basics)

How do I keep track of my weight? — 

You can use a chart to help you keep track (form 1).

Every time you weigh yourself, write down:

●The date and time

●Your weight

●Important details you want to remember – For example, you can note what you ate, if you took your medicine, and how you were feeling.

Your doctor or nurse can tell you:

●How and when to weigh yourself

●When to take an action, such as calling the doctor, based on changes in your weight
