LOL, funny but serious question. Do you weigh yourself with or without clothes in the morning or afternoon?

    A little of both. If I've had a bad week, nekkid weigh in is a must! If i've had a good week I'm okay with having the clothes on. But first thing in the morning, after bathroom, but before shower.

    Just after a big lunch with as many winter clothes on as possible and carrying some heavy books...

    Oh no, sorry, I meant first thing in morning sans clothes and preferably post bathroom visit.

    In the morning is good. Some people belong to groups where the no clothes wouldn't be an option. So do what is comfortable for you - just wear the same things when you weigh yourself. That way you get a realistic number. Just remember most clothes don't weigh 10 pounds :laugh:

    Every morning, first thing in the morning without clothes and after bathroom.

    I remember one time going to the Doctor's for an afternoon appointment and they weighed me with clothes and I was like 6 lbs heavier than that morning!

    Morning, no clothes, after using the toilet and before consuming water (for meds) and food.

    The only exception is when I've just been to the doctor's office. I usually go straight home and step on the scale wearing whatever I was wearing for my appointment to make sure that we're more or less in sync.

    I weigh in the morning after a trip to the bathroom, with clothes on. I always weigh-in wearing the same outfit so it does show me being heavier, but at least doesn't change from week to week.

    :tongue: Just like Adam & Eve......ALL BARE in the morning before showering I was once told to do it that way by a nutritionist I don't know why though. I didn't understand her philosophy.
