Thats weird. Im in the scots and might steal your idea hahaha.
I'm actually pretty sure I'd weigh more, with my hair being wet.0 -
very hot bath? May be working like a sauna - taking water weight off, but not 'real' weight.0

I like my bath hot enough to make my skin red but cool enough to sit in0

Best time to weigh yourslf is first thing in the morning0

that is interesting, I thought you would weigh more as your skin/ body retains some of the water. Its mad how your weight can vary so much in a day- sometimes mine by upto 2lbs in a day. Thats why always good to have the same time of day as a weigh in time.0

Air pressure in the bathroom affecting scale accuracy? Air will be hotter and more humid after a bath, making the air denser. Me? Clutching at straws & excuses, no never ;-)0

i think its just water weight, you shouldnt weigh yourself too many times,
just do it once a week in the morning, and you will get a clear idea how much u lose or gain.
most of our body is made up of water.
