    I have used the wet hair excuse -- though, to be fair, I used to have hair that hung down past my waist and was very thick and held a LOT of water. XD

    I also find myself sucking in my gut when I get on the scale -- like it's going to help! *facepalm*

    I'll add one:

    Someone moved my scale to a different part of the floor which isn't as balanced and where I didn't weigh yesterday and it was lined up perfectly for me! +3 or +2 or -1 or -5 or +6...:tongue:

    I don't tolerate any excuses made in my head in that regards so I don't dare make any :laugh:

    Weigh in. Log. Move on. That's what I always do

    HAHA.

    Once I didn't poop for 10 days straight (yes, I know) and I still stand by that it legitimately warranted a 20 lb advantage.

    I give myself a 2lb advantage if I'm wearing jeans rather than my usual weigh-in outfit (dress and tights which barely weigh anything).

    Its past 7am +5 (seriously.. the second I eat *anything*, it's over)
    I'm working out too hard +3

    No excuses for me, but sometimes i step on the scale on my tile floor, and one of the little legs it stands on will shift down into the grouted area, and read a weight that is 10 LBS off. I usually get really excited or disappointed for just a flash, then i realize what happened.

    turns out people who don't have a bowel movement at least once a day can carry up to 9 lbs of fecal matter in their intestines.

    eat your fiber!!!
