Because your monthly weighing could be at a peak or valley of your ups and downs of weight, you really ought to weigh yourself much more often and then average the readings in order to get a better picture of what's going on. Think how discouraging it'd be to weigh yourself at a minimum one month and then at a maximum the next. You might see no change or even a gain when the trend is really down.
