Just curious if anyone has certain rituals that they most do before weigh in. Mine is that the scale has to be centred on the same 2 tiles always! :)

    Wake up, pee, make sure I am naked, step on scale. Pretty much the same thing every morning.

    I'm pretty much exactly like all of them ^^ I wake up, pee and poop (if possible), strip down to nothing, then weigh! I do it every morning!

    First thing in the morning after I pee. I also have a tile that mine has to be on. As I'm on the scale, I pray before I look down. lol

    Out of bed. Pee. Strip down.
    Have hubs check the number because I'm near-sighted and it's not a digital scale.
    He quite enjoys it :blushing:

    I have found that depending on the bathroom tile, my scale can give a reading of + or - 3 lbs, so I always put it on the 3rd tile from the door, 2nd row from the wall...
    Glad I'm not the only one who has a special tile! :smile:

    I always weigh in on a Monday morning at 6am, just as I get to work. I never have food or drink before hand - but I like my body to have time to settle into being awake! I always wear my work uniform to weight in as well - so I have no doubts about my clothes choice!

    wake up, throw as much ballast overboard as my system has to throw, position the scale to it's "official" spot, step on, adjust feet to "official" positions ... (oddly on my scale I've noticed foot position can change a weight by 3-4 lbs .. both feet touching in the center is heavier than pinkie toes just flush with the edge) .. and thebathroom floor is heavily textured, so the scale has to be on that one little spot that's even.

    I weigh in early Wednesday mornings. So wake up, use the toilet (depends which number, in honesty), do a few test runs on the scales without looking, be in pants, step on, wait a few seconds and measure. Then take weekly photos and measurements of self.

    Seems to be working so far.

    I work at a hospital and I weigh in at work. So on weigh in day, I leave the house extra early, wear similiar clothes as I did last weigh-in. Get to work, use the restroom, take off my shoes and weigh in.

    First thing in the morning
    Scale in correct position horizontally and vertically to mean gives same measure as doctors surgery.
    if getting weighed at surgery which is once a week I am on a conveypr belt of past exercise before weigh ins that means i need to work out before going down there to meet my nurse at 815
    Not so much exercise that results in low blood pressure reading but enough to mean the trend is down and the goal is in sight.
    I can lose 8lbs in an exercise session and did yesterday so have to try not to make the conveyor belt harder and harder and avoid doing more than an hour on these mornings.
    Obessive maybe but that is the process
