Ok so this may be tmi...but just wondering how everyone weighs in. I have been told you should be completely naked and stand on the scale, and then I have been told to add in the extra weight of clothes (so wear the clothes) because that's what you usualy have on. So how are you suppose to weigh in?

Thanks! :)

    I weigh first thing in the morning when I get up in just my undies. Hope this helps.

    I usually weigh fully clothed and then subtract out the clothing. When I was pregnant, I would weigh naked at home and then weigh at the doctor's office and I learned quickly how to estimate how much my clothing weighed (since I was comparing them every 2 weeks for 40 weeks!) So when I weigh clothed, I subtract out one pound if I'm wearing shorts and a top, two if I'm wearing pants and a top.

    Doesn't matter as long as you are consistant! Pick one.... always weigh naked OR always wear roughly the same type of clothes.

    I follow the majority: no clothes, first thing in the morning, after going to the bathroom!

    Right after I wake up, in only underwear. I don't ever weigh with clothes because that particular weight can fluctuate depending on what you're wearing, so you never have an exact idea of what YOU actually weigh. When I weigh in at doc's, I'm always prepared for a two pound difference from my scale.

    Totally the same. Although i am going to weigh myself once a month..weekly puts way to much stress and focus on me because I fluctuate.

    It actually does make a big difference by 1/2 or 1 lb.

    naked and fabulous! :happy: and usually after I have a twinkle and brushed my teeth etc, I hop on the scale on a Monday morning...although sometimes I do it at other times, just for interest really, when I get out of the bath, before I go to bed etc, but only record the Monday morning regular one. Plus from my experience at work I ALWAYS weigh 3x and if it changes at all (sometimes it does!) I then move the scale a smidge and do it 3x again. This is how we weigh the children at work always do a 3x to check for consistency and accuracy.

    As soon as I wake up in the morning, I use the bathroom, weigh myself, use the bathroom again, and weigh again. I take the second weight as my final weight. I always drink water before I go to bed :-)

    you have a special room to rest in? :laugh:

    (sorry this is from a tv show over here in the UK, kind of making light of the whole rest room/bathroom diffference across the pond, please don't be offended)
