Weigh with or without clothes

Are you a nudist?
If not, you'll have clothes on all day long, essentially carrying them around with you, so your 'normal' weight will be clothed.
With the extra pound or two of clothing, you'll burn an extra calorie or two while walking around.
Do you strip to the skin when you weigh at the doctor's office?
Probably not, so your morning naked weight is not comparable to what the doctor's scale reports.
So, as some have said, as long as you are consistent, it doesn't matter much.
No, you can't realistically compare your clothed weight in shorts and a T-shirt and barefoot with your weight in a long-sleeved shirt, boots, long underwear, jeans (with your pockets full of change, keys, and a wallet bulging with photos, etc.), but you CAN if you wear the same type clothing every day.
Personally, I weight every day, jot down the weight, take an average at the end of the week, and record that average.
This avoids the routine daily fluctuations of water weight and other minor factors amounting to a differential of a couple of pounds daily.

Naked after my first pee of the day. For an extra feel good boost cut toe nails, clean out ears, blow nose and if necessary, shave head.

It's weighing day today for me and I usually weigh myself with my clothes on. (Usually my pyjamas.) Today I thought I would check what my weight is without. (Only my underwear left on)
It was 2ibs lighter.

So my question is should I log without clothes or with?

Your clothes have nothing to do with your body weight...not sure why you would weigh your clothes.

It doesn't really matter though as long as you're consistent so long as the clothes are the same.

I weigh in my pj's, they're very lightweight ones. I did weigh once with pj's on, then got naked and weighed again and it made zero difference to the scale number.
Plus it's winter here, so it's cooooold in the mornings, and to be honest i really could not be bothered getting out of bed, getting undressed, then getting dressed again!

The garments I wear to weigh myself do themselves weigh 2.8 lb. The scale weight is thus 2.8 lb above my weight.
