Default This WOE as potential obsessive "disorder"?

I've been reading the thread about how often people weigh themselves. Many freely admit to weighing multiple times a day. I know that CAD recommends daily weighing and then averaging (and even graphing!) the loss. Frankly, I don't want to be that preoccupied (could we say obsessed?) with my weight. Some people are dieting for health, but I don't think anyone checks their blood pressure several times a day.

Is there a point where a dietary way of life, no matter how beneficial to the body, can become an obsession that unbalances our mental health?
