Thanks so much for the contributions. I'll start doing this in the morning.0

I weight each morning after bathroom, naked. I only log once a week, on Thursdays. The scale I use is an EatRight Precision, and I also have access at work to one of the physicians scales with the bar that you slide and the weights, so a couple times a month I come into work early and use it to make sure my scale is accurate. On these mornings, I weigh normally, then weigh with my clothes on so I know what they weigh. I think my coworkers would frown upon me stripping down naked in the hallway at the office. :-)
Occasionally if I've had a SUPER busy day and haven't had time to eat/haven't drank very much I'll weigh when I get home just out of curiosity and that can sometimes be my lightest weight because then it'll have been close to 24 hours since my last meal, but I try not to do that often. Unfortunately, the nature of my job is that sometimes I just don't have time to stop and eat.0 -
That's how I feel better about my weight. Currently working out though lol0

I weigh myself after I wake up and use the bathroom. Normally naked or in underwear...0

I weigh myself whenever I want, sometimes I do it once a week sometimes I'll do it everyday. It's always after I wake up and pee. I use my wiifit board (literally the only thing I use my wii for :laugh:) and I do it nude that way I know for sure what I weigh. My clothes vary in weight.0

The truest weight, in my honest opinion, is first thing in the morning AFTER VOIDING, and wearing nothing but a smile (or frown depending upon the number you see)... Honestly, I like to weigh daily BUT weekly weights are better indicators of progress. Also, realize, due to differences in hydration, etc., the "truest weight" is only true within a reasonable error of measurement. We cannot totally eliminate this error because of sodium intake and hydration variables, as well as regularity of bowel movements, etc. But the WORST time to weigh is late evening because you have all the intake of the day still being processed.0

When you get up, after you've been to the toilet, naked and standing on one leg *nods*
