Best time - first thing in the morning after you vacate the contents of your bladder and bowels
Worst time - afternoon to the evening

I get the best consistency by weighing first thing in the morning - right after I get up, use the bathroom, step on the scale. That way it's before I've had any food or fluids, just me in my nightshirt, every time.

Me too. Food from the day before has been digested, nothing is in yet, and you're not wearing layers of clothing. I'll take whatever I can!

I think the worst time of the day to weigh one's self is in the evening…. regardless, you should weigh yourself at the same time, be it daily or weekly. Personally, I weigh myself daily- I'm a bit neurotic like that.

I weigh myself every Saturday morning, after I use the rest room and with no clothes. I refuse to weigh myself everyday and I refuse to weigh myself at night after eating all day long. But hey that's just me.

I go up the most immediately after exercising. 1.5 to 2 lbs. is my usual gain, then it starts dropping throughout the day. I also go up a little after meals. I assume that both of these gains are due to more blood flowing through my body.

I weight myself when I wake up, which could be anytime between 5am-12 noon depending on if i have work or not.... Is this a bad time?

Its best to weight yourself at the same time each day. Your weight will fluculate throughout the day, its natural - eating, drinking, blood pumping, bathroom uses, etc. Many people like to weigh in the morning b/c your body was just at rest, you are starting the day fresh and you don't have anything in your tummy. So typically you weigh your least in the mornings. I'd say avoid weighing in after a big meal, lol. Just be consisitent on time of day for your weigh-ins. For example, I used to weigh in every Wednesday after seeing my trainer so I was always in the same setting and could get a steady read.

It's the weight of the water you drink during exercising and the food in your stomach

before you poop or after you eat

I weigh myself at the end of the day after I complete my food diary. Apparently this is a bad idea? Maybe I weigh less than I think I do? lol

any time while you eat, the best time early morning before breakfast and after visiting the toilet and not drinking or eating for 8-12 hours thats the most accurate you will get, so just dont eat at 6 pm and when u wake up next day after the toilet wieght yourself

The worst time is probably mid afternoon or evening after a meal, without using the bathroom first. Especially if you had a ton of sodium. And if you're a woman, right before or on the first day of your TOM. That is the absolute worst time.

Morning is the best time from my experience. Not sure the worst, but probably after dinner.
