Why weighing NUDE is wrong!

Master does not let me wear cloths at home.

It's also more convenient to be already nude since every time I step on the scale and can now read it without bending over I get "excited" :bigsmile:

It's a non-issue.
Doctor's office scale (clothed) tends to show me at 3 pounds heavier than my home scale (naked).
So what?

I always evacuate my colon, and administer a coffee enema before weighing myself.

Wait, we get to count our clothes as body weight? Is that LBM or fat tissue? I assume not water weight...

:huh: But my clothes aren't actually a part of me. I want to know what I weigh - not my clothes.

^haha I agree with this! I expect it to be different at the dr but I don't compare that to what i weigh at home. Apples to apples... as long as one consistantly weighs at the same time and in the same (nude/clothed) condition, one sees progress.

Is this really even a post? I mean really? Who cares if you weigh in the nude or with clothes on?? It's up to the person. Next?

I always weigh myself when I'm naked.

Although the security in the shop weren't too impressed when I tried testing the scales when I went to buy a new one. :grumble:

Let me know If anyone has questions on how to weigh themselves nude.. I will send video to show proper technique

I think the only time it makes a difference is if you are trying to ensure weight standards for something like military service -- the difference of weight between scales & clothing can have a HUGE impact on your quality of life...

You're doing it wrong, you have to set up a digital drop box for people to send videos to you so you can critique there...."form"

Actually I think clothes can bring you down. If you are stepping on a scale fully clothed you are adding like a pound or two. That can hurt you mentally because it seems like no weight is being lost. I weigh in my undies so I can know exactly what I weigh. To each his/ her own.

I weight on my wii fit... It's give option to take off allowance for clothes I never do so I suppose I'm weighing with what I have on. Pretty light clothes tho....

I just lost a little over 2 lbs on my ticker because it finally clicked in that selecting 'light clothes' on my Wii Fit was the reason my home number and gym number was different ! :laugh: I'm a little slow in the mornings.... :yawn:

I prefer seeing my measurements Far more satisfying =D

Me too. I was surprised by that actually. I'd been very happy losing a pound a week but when I felt like my clothes were looser and I measured and saw I'd lost inches from my weight I was ten times happier. And fitting into a dress I hadn't worn in years gave me so much more pleasure than a number on a scale

Might be wrong for YOU since you seem to often weigh yourself outside the home....I only weigh myself at home...and the doctor weighs in kg while I weigh in in pounds, so I don't pay attention to what the weight at the drs office is anyways. I prefer to weigh myself before I put clothes on for the day...I can't imagine wearing the same clothes every day just to get good scale reading.

I weigh myself in the morning after going to the bathroom, and I am always in the buff (because I sleep sans clothing). It's not something I think about. Also, I never weigh myself at any other time of day, so it will always be consistent. I'm not worried about it.

I am the same. I only ever weigh myself on the same scales because then it's consistent. I also weigh myself at the same time of the day while I am naked.

I weigh in the nude at home. I always use the same scale.

I don't care what my clothes weigh or what I weigh at the doctor's office or anywhere else. Yes, scales weigh differently; pick ONE scale & use that for tracking.

And please do not use the scale as your only means of judging progress. It only measures total weight.

I only weigh myself every two weeks at my health clinic with clothes and shoes on. Even though I have another 30 kilos to lose I don't really care what I weigh from one weigh-in to the other. What interests me is my general state of health, my measurements and only lastly what I weigh. And since my clothing is pretty much the same each time , I am happy if the scale goes down even with clothes on. If I weighed 94 kilos last Friday and maybe weigh 92 kilos next Friday it means that I have lost 2 kilos/4.4 pounds if I am naked or not.

I just want to know how much I weigh. Don't much care about my clothing. Don't much care about what the doctor's office scale says either. It can go be its own bad self and count my jeans, wallet, phone, and whatever else it wants.

Precisely... All scales are going to be different regardless of clothing. I go by what my home scale says and the only other scale I step on is at the doctors and if it's a little higher or lower it won't effect be because I know. I also weigh myself before I eat it drink anything and unless doctors appt is ay 630 AM (and the don't open until 830 so this never happens) I know I am going to weigh more anyhow.

Exactly.

I always weigh NAKED...

pics or it didnt happen!!



(im obviously joking, i guess you have to point out these things)

How do you weigh yourself?

Personally, I think weighing yourself in the nude is a recipe for disappointment. First off, scales vary! So if you go to another scale, it's probably going to read a pound one way or another.

I used to weigh myself nude on several different scales but one day the neighbor lady came home early and found me on her scale. It's all good. They just gave me a restraining order so there's no real criminal record associated with it.

I almost spit my drink out laughing when I read this. Thank you for that. lol.

sunshyncatra

I weigh in wearing PJs first thing in the morning. I like to be able to take my shoes off if I weigh myself at the doctor's office, but I don't whine about it if I can't.

Docmahi

I weigh in naked everyday lol - I cant see that changing

I'm generally about 4 pounds heavier when I weigh in at work on the scale in scrubs my white coat, shoes, wallet keys and cellphone so I dunno doesn't bother me

but I guess I could see your point

SoDamnHungry

Even at work, we were doing what we called a "Fat Off" and we always have to weigh with our clothes on. So it made not sense for me to weigh myself nude if every other weigh-in I did outside of my home was going to be with clothes.

It made sense for you because you were in a competition requiring weighing at work in your clothes.

I'm just keeping track of how much I actually weigh. And I only weigh myself at home. If, three times a year the doctor weighs me and I come out as five pounds heavier because I'm wearing pants and drank a glass of water, it doesn't really matter at all.

Nightterror218

i weight myself on the same scale and in the amount of clothes or lack there of each time to remain consistent.

It's also more convenient to be already nude since every time I step on the scale and can now read it without bending over I get "excited" :bigsmile:

I want to know how much I weigh, not how much my clothes weigh. I even take off my wedding ring, so I can weigh just myself and nothing else.
