Are you naked...

nursevee

My scale is a POS so weighing myself at home is just silly. At least the scale @ the gym is accurate. I take my shoes off and wear just the minimal gym stuff (workout leggings and a tank top etc) and I try not to eat or drink before I do it. I always take a protein shake that day.

Yeah I do it to. I also void before weighing. (I'm sorry if that's TMI, yall :laugh: )

It's not as funny as sacrifice a chicken, but much more clinical. You're fine.

Me? I always get up, use the facilities, take off my clothes in preparation for a shower, pray my daughter stays asleep just a few more seconds, and weigh myself. Have shower, get dressed and start my day.
*Sacrifice a chicken - Mwa ha ha ha!*

Since my offical weigh in is with my trainer I weigh myself in the afternoon with clothes on after using the bathroom.

Always done it naked, but not first thing - my eyes won't focus that early! . . . but with the scales in exactly the same spot, even if it means jumping on and off it 10 times and nudging it to the left, right, forward or backwards so it reads what I want to see!!

I weigh myself in the morning when I get up after I go to the bathroom naked:embarassed: ...only and always naked because clothes can put on a couple extra pounds and your always lightess in the morning..

This is exactly how I do it too.

Regarding getting weighed at the doctors etc, I have often been asked to jump on the scales with boots and a coat on! Hardly accurate LOL.

The only weight that matters is the one that I do myself in my opinion, anywhere else will be with clothes on so I know I will be lighter than it says anyway.

Ok - is "sacrifice a chicken" a euphemism for what I think it is, or for having a poo?

Usually in my underwear which probably weighs very litte! Every Friday morning, it's the second thing I do :happy:

.....when you weigh yourself? It's pretty stressful to stand on the scale when you are alone and then when on a public scale (Dr's, gym, school?)... I don't know if it's wrong to weigh "just me" or if I should always weigh myself with clothing on to be closer to the weight when out & about. Any suggestions? Is there a right way, right time? right scale? to use when weighing self? Should I have a scale that also determines BMI?

Geesh, this is all so complicated. Just wanted thoughts on the best weigh to weigh self.. Clothes? No clothes? Which is more honest and best?

BUTT NAKED! In my own bathroom of course!

BeeZoe

Definitely, wake up, bathroom, pass on the chicken - not awake enough to clean that mess up, weigh in. I also think that weighing naked in the bathroom works double magic because you are NAKED in front of the bathroom mirrors so you are reminded why you are standing naked on a scale first thing in the morning and you get used to being naked, comfortable with it, and you learn to notice the differences in your body as you move that scale DOWN!

Well you know after you pee, there that...
Ok..never mind

gnrshelton

First thing in the morning and naked. Your always lighter.

grouch201

Always naked for me first thing in the morning after taking care of any business that took place during the night. I always drink a tall glass of water before bed too just because it's a nice way to cap the day. If you are going to weigh yourself with clothing, just try to always make it the same clothing.

BUTT NEKKID! Friday morning, second thing i do. Scale in the same spot on the bathroom floor.

Me too! I thought I was the only crazy one who made sure the scale was in the same spot!

bsexton3

I weigh first thing in morning wearing the shorts I slept in. I always sleep in athletic shorts, so they weigh about the same.

You also asked about a BMI scale. According to a sports trainer friend, they are less reliable than the scales for weight. It will vary simply by how much moisture is on your feet. The best way to test BMI is to use calipers. I figure I will ask my doctor when I go in for my physical if that is something he does, or where to go for it.

gecho

naked (or as close to as possible, i usually have on undies, bra and a camisole) first thing in the morning before you eat or drink anything and AFTER you go to the bathroom.
