    Well scales are used for tracking changes in weight loss so if you want to weigh in underwear/shirt from now on to see a lower number (closer to your actual body weight) then you need to take 2lbs off all your other weigh-ins. If you don't want that hassle, then continue to weigh in sweats but know that you're actually a little lighter than what you see. But indeed, clothes can weigh a lot, which is why it's recommended that you weigh in very light clothing.

    Aim for consistency. I almost always weigh in in leggings and a t-shirt. When I change up my pajamas (since I weigh in first thing in the morning) I always see a shift. If you usually weigh in in sweats, continue to do so.
