    When I started, I used the shipping scale in the warehouse, so I was fully dressed ... keys in my pocket, cell phone, wallet, etc.
    I use the same scale for each weigh-in, so I'm similarly attired each time, making each subsequent reading comparable.
    The LOSS is what's important, not the current number.
    As long as one is consistent, it doesn't matter.
    When attending a doctor's appointment, the nurse weighs me in the hallway prior to entering the examination room, so obviously I'm fully dressed then.
    Just don't load up with heavy clothing with $10 in change in your pocket one day, then be nude the next, and proclaim a weight loss!
    XD I LOST 30 POUNDS IN 2 DAYS haha srry but ur comment had me rofl XD

    And who the hell measures their height with shoes on? That has to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

    If I remember and it's not so cold that I've already dragged my clothes on, a tank and panties, plus my jewellery and glasses.

    My first stop in the morning is the bathroom. If it's the upstairs one, then I'm dressed. If I make it downstairs, it's weighing time straight afterwards.


    But I do have to remember to do it in the first place.

    Only thing i wear when I weigh myself is a smile. Sometimes a frown depending on what the scale says.

    Doesn't matter, so long as you're consistent... and I am not, lol. It's anywhere from nakies to sweatpants and a t-shirt. Then I wonder why the scale and I don't get along...

    But seriously, who measures height with shoes on? I guess again, as long as you're consistent... but seriously? Isn't it REALLY OBVIOUS that it's going to affect the outcome? And unlike weight, where +/- a few pounds is not a big deal in the grand scheme, +/- ANYthing in height is just plain inaccurate? What a weirdo. :)

    I always wear my shoes at the dr. I don't want to step on that nasty/germy scale in bare feet, or even my socks for that matter.

    I usually wear nothing. Maybe I'll have my underwear on if I just stepped out of the shower, but I think its best to weigh yourself with nothing on so you can get your exact weight.

    absoutely nothing! and I make sure I relieve myself prior to weighing in...no extra pounds or waste needed!

    Considering clothes can add two to three pounds sans shoes, I prefer not to guesstimate and just do it naked or in my underwear, depending on what I wore to bed the night before.

    Absolutely nothing. I want the most accurate reflection of my weight, so I take off everything.

    Height - barefoot or a pair of socks (height checked at the doctor's office annually).

    Weight - a pair of panties usually. Not so concerned with the few grams of weight for those.

    I normally weigh myself with nothing on. When you wear clothes you weigh more. I want to know how much I truly weigh.

    Ditto!
