Weigh In - Naked or Clothes

i was wondering if most people here weigh themselves naked. When we go to the doctor or gym, we are clothed. I used to think my home scale was off by five pounds until I remembered that I would weigh while naked when I first got up and my doctor weigh in was late in the afternoon fully clothed.

Currently, I weigh myself in pajamas and slippers. Probably because I used to sleep in the nude but do not any longer. Getting old. LOL.

So here's a poll: Naked or Clothed

    I weigh in without clothes - I want to know how much "I" weigh, not how much my clothes weigh. The weight of clothing and shoes vary, so unless you are wearing the same pajamas every day, you could have fluctuations (probably not much, but some).

    I weigh right before i get into the shower in the morning.. so naked totally. Wearing clothes makes a difference in your weight. so does wet hair.. so dont weigh in after taking a shower.

    I get weighed in the shopping centre, on the scales you pay for one evening a week. So yes I have my clothes on, might get a few funny looks if I didnt. I just recently started taking my shoes off though.

    I do wonder if I could lose a few lb, naked in the mornings. But I always use the same scales at the same time and I don't want to own scales as I am sure I would get obsessed.

    yep yep - what they said.
    sometimes, even one's morning .... uhmmm..... toileting needs, shall we say? can make a difference. sometimes.

    Of course, I'm crazy... I'll weigh throughout the day, every day. But that's b/c of my tendency to research and I want to see how what I eat affects the daily outcomes. Currently tracking A.M. & P.M. weights every day and might do a chart to compare, see if there's a relationship - then compare that to cals.

    :-)

    Maybe I should change my user ID to "nerd". HAHAHAHAHA!!!

    Completely naked first thing in the morning after I go potty! lol : ) It's the only way I weigh in. As long as I see a difference when I weigh the same way the next time, I know that wearing jeans vs. shorts or something isn't contributing to my gain or loss. Good luck!

    I weigh every morning after using the bathroom in a t-shirt and underwear...and that's the weight I record. But I'm obsessed with stepping on the scale and weighing myself several times through out the day.

    When I went to Weight Watchers several years ago I would wear the same outfit and shoes to every meeting. I started going in the summer so I wore shorts, a t-shirt and Keds without socks to every meeting; even in the winter months. The meeting location was only a couple blocks from my house so once, when it snowed, I even walked to the meeting in my shorts, t-shirt and Keds. I did wear a heavy, long coat though--and I live in the south so it was only a few inches of snow. :)

    I'm definitely ocd when it comes to somethings but the only thing about weighing is I like to be sure I'm using the same scale. SO I use the one at the gym each time and compare it to the one at my Docs office which strangely is the same weight. So that makes it simple. I don't like to give the scale too much power.

    I don't weigh very often if I did I'd drive myself insane. lol Sometimes i jump on for fun to see if something might have happened. I know what I'm eating and how my clothes feel, I typically go by that.

    But everyone of us is different in regards to that scale.:laugh: :laugh:

    Naked too, early in the morning. If I go to the doctor in the afternoon, I will weight at home with clothes and without shoes, and there is about 2lbs difference between my scale and my doctor's scale; and her office is only 10 minutes from my house.

    I like my scale better, for obvious reasons.

    For me it's usually just a wee. But on occasion it's a poo too. :laugh:

    Poo can weigh half a pound. It's best not to weigh right after because you will just build up more.

    I weigh in right after waking up in PJ's after the morning toilet activities. I don't log every day though, I wait until it is consistant for a couple of days. I'm not that concerned with the scale though, more concerned with the way my clothes are fitting.

    panties and a vest - which I sleep in after I go to the loo in the morning! I did wonder about what clothes weighed so i weighed my clothes once (yes a bit random) but they weighed almost nothing - no way near a lb so I just leave them on now
