Yes, that what people usually says, but the article says exactly the contrary.
Anyway I don't see why it makes more sense to make readings everyday and make an average on the last n, then use this average to make a continuous set of decisions.
What you are probably thinking, is about making one decision, like "do I have to diet or not?". It is also the case if someone is only slightly interested in her/his weight, for me I weight in exactly the same conditions everyday. I told it in the previous post, it's a bit hugly on the social side, it has to be an obsession to make it work.
My main question everyday is: How my weight relate to last day meals, and there is a very close correlation, that why it is so useful to weight often.
