The weigh in

Ok, since Ive been on this weight loss journey. I only weigh myself while im at work (no scale at home). I work in the medical field so I wear scrubs basically everyday. This morning I was at a friend house and I decided to weigh myself before getting in the shower. What a difference I seen between being bare and fully clothed. How many of you weigh yourself in fully clothed or bare.

    I usually weigh in my undewear and bra/shirt. Whatever I slept in. The big difference you saw can also be becasue all scales will weigh you a little bit differently. it's best to only log from the same scale if possible

    Also all scales are not created equal!

    When you weigh yourself at work do you routinely have any sort of breakfast/drink?

    Invest in a scale if you want to get an accurate reading.

    I weigh the same day, same time every week -- before I shower or eat and naked :)

    I weigh naked. But I've noticed when I weigh with my clothes on it doesn't make any difference. I must wear really light clothes....

    I weight when I first get up, with no clothes.

    In the nude after lunch but before dinner. I like to weight myself when I am the heaviest during the day.

    this and throughout the day if I feel like it. I like to see patterns and fluctuations.

    If I weigh the same for a number of days I record that weight; only the first weight in the am counts for me.

    I weigh daily not weekly because what if that day was a bad day and not accurate. I find keeping of track daily weight patterns is more accurate.

    However i only recommend it if you don't put too much emphasis on fluctuating weight. Some freak out. Lol
