Showering before a Weigh in

I have my final 2 weigh ins for my biggest loser competition and I had a question. I want to try and get to the gym early in the AM before work, but I'm worried that I will absorb more water weight than I burn if I shower. Anyone have any hard facts or something regarding the issue?

    I always weigh about half a pound less after my shower then I did before. Not sure why that is, but I have seen other people on here who say it's the same for them.
  • I keep hearing mixed reviews. I have a couple guys in the competition preparing to shave their whole bodies and such haha. A bit competitive at my job.
