Well the day before weigh in I will drink a TON of extra water to flush any water weight out of my system. The following morning I will get up, potty, then strip down for my weigh in. I don't like weighing with clothes on, some clothes may only weigh a pound while others can make a difference of 3. So that is my weigh in ritual!0

I get up. Toilet (whatever the body has to do, the body does!). Then I weigh, naked as a jay bird (that's stupid expression, by the way). Three times. Because the scale MIGHT be wrong.
I do this every day.
I USED to weight at night before bed too but I was driving myself crazy.0 -
wake up, pee, get naked, weigh in.
that's my ritual every monday & thursday.0 -
I get up use the bathroom, strip down and then weigh myself0

1) Lay out the gilded decorative lily petals in a path towards the scale
2) Don my all-weight-watching-eye tunic and begin my silent chant of weightlessness
3) Step on the scale and pray to all that is holy I have lost weight
Rinse and repeat0 -
i do that everyday as well...0

I get up, pee, shower, get ready for work (except for clothes) then I usually have to pee and sometimes number 2 by that time, then I weigh. Same stuff every Wednesday morning. I usually try to eat healthier and drink more water on Tuesdays too.0

This had me inappropriately laughing out loud at work. Thanks.0 -
Geez I'm boring.
I wake up on any given random day...decide I want to weigh in...go pee...strip...weigh...go in shower.
The end!0 -
Every morning I weigh naked after my workout unless it's Saturday. That's my official weigh in day. That day I try to hold off until 9am to weigh in unless I have #2 before then. I always step on the scale at LEAST twice. If I have a huge loss the first time I step on it I probably will go up the second and third time. And there's no food before any of this...
Oh what we do to ourselves...:)0 -
I put a handle like on a slot machine put my quarters in......Come on 7's!!!!!:explode:0

I'm an early morning weight checker.
Do my business, strip down to my undies and hop on.0 -

Hey, I've been told that you should not shower before weighing in due to the water that your body will absorb while taking a shower. Plus, if you have long hair, like I do, the hair will soak up an immense amount of water.
Thoughts???0 -
Am I the only one who weighs in with clothes on?0

1. Get up
2. Strip down
3. Get on the scale (usually while chanting something positive under my breath and trying to think 'light' thoughts)0 -
Am I the only one who weighs myself with my clothes on? Lol.0

It honestly depends on the day for me if my weight's up or down after my shower. I always step on the scale before the shower and sometimes after. Some days higher, some days lower. My hair's too short to make much difference there.0 -
Lol..very cute!0

LMAO! I should try this0 -
but instead: do my business, strip, weigh, swear, shower.
I also take a water pill every other day to keep the edema from getting too bad in my legs. I will only weigh the day AFTER I take my water pill. It's amazing how effective they are, both for the edema and weight loss.0 -
I know this is a looked-down-upon practice, but I weigh myself fully dressed and usually a bit after I eat. I track trends more than anything.0

Daily weigher...I need to quit doing that!
So here's the daily ritual:
1-wake up
2-potty
3-coffee
4-coffee
5-change clothes
6-exercise
7-potty
8-strip
9-brush teeth
9a-ceremonial scale placing on the tile floor
9b-guess my weight
10-weigh
11-cheer or sigh
12-shower
I'm pathetic, as if brushing my teeth before a weigh in is going to in someway have me lose a pound! 0 -
Glad I am not the only one who pees and does anything else my body needs to do before I weigh in. I also strip down to my birthday suit and if I have on jewelry that comes off too! LOL. Then I step on the scale and pray. I like to weigh in the mornings, but I am known to weigh in the evenings too. Shows me how much damage I done during the day.
Happy weighing naked!0 -
I stand on one foot, jump up and down 20 times and throw some chicken bones on the floor!0
