You are only required to weigh in and weigh out within the respective time frames. If you also purchased the membership, it is optional to weigh in weekly to be entered into a drawing for a prize!
Great question! Somer is correct. The game itself requires the Initial and Final weigh-ins during their specific timeframes. Members can weigh in weekly for accountability and the chance to win prizes. You can also update your weight unofficially (no photos required) to help you keep track of your progress.
