Monthly seems smart, i was doing weekly and just got annoyed at the little day to day swings. One thing that helped me was taking the pics in the same spot in my apartment with the blinds open, miami light is too unpredictable otherwise

Monthly is plenty, i switched to that after weekly shots started messing with my head over water weight. Face changes showed up before anything else for me too, weirdly the first thing anyone noticed

#25

Monthly is plenty, i was snapping pics every couple weeks early on and the small changes just looked like nothing side by side. The face thing hits first for real, i noticed it in my jaw before anything else moved

#27

Face changes showed up for me before anything else did, so I get why the side by side hit hard. Monthly sounds right, weekly shots would just make me antsy

#33

I started at monthly from day one mostly because I knew weekly shots would make me nuts, and it kept the comparison useful instead of a chore. Around the six week point is where the face change really starts showing up in mine too.

I do mine on the first of the month so I can't cherry pick a good day, and the one time I skipped it I regretted it a couple weeks later when nothing looked different in the mirror.

Monthly seems to be the consensus here, but I'm curious whether anyone keeps the weekly ones too just for their own record. I've been deleting mine and kind of regret it now.
