    weight one day fully dressed 210 next day I weighed myself before bed with out a bra this time bc hey bed 213.8 could it been the fact that the bra was off allowing my 42 fs to weigh me down or just the end of the day causeing me to freak?

    Despite what people here want you to believe, gravity does fluctuate. So braless your breastages were closer to the earth and actually heavier due to increased gravity

    So then according to your science, if the weight is closer the ground the gravity is "fluctuating" heavier? So then I would want most of my weight to be further from the ground. So then if I carry most of my weight around my hips as most women do...I would benefit from weighing standing on my head, correct?

    Its not "my science"
    Yes you can calculate the gravitational pull based on altitude change

    gh = g0(re/(re+h))^2

    Where
    gh is the gravitational acceleration at height h\, above sea level.
    re is the Earth's mean radius. (6,371 kilometers)
    g0 is the standard gravitational acceleration. (9.80665 m/s2)

    That's a lot of science and math I don't understand. Can you "short answer" that for me?

    Weigh standing on head, yes or no?

    This is technically true and I love that it's been posted here. I giggled. A lot.

    Practically speaking, since the height above sea level (h) is small in comparison to the radius of the earth (re), height...for the purposes of weighing in and determining weight loss...is negligible.

    So, let them dangle or hold 'em high...their height isn't going to affect your scale numbers.

    Laughing at this thread has caused me to almost aspirate part of my dinner...twice. Well done, all! :D

    1) It's not "closer to the ground", it's "closer to the center of the Earth"
    2) Gravity is directly proportional to the inverse square of said distance. For example, she's have to double her distance from the center of the Earth (e.g. thousands of miles above surface) to drop to 1/4 of her weight.

    In other words, inches/feet difference from the ground would be account for such a negligible difference in weight, no scale available for home use would detect the difference.

    You sir are incorrect

    This sounds like maybe it means....Short answer. NO! Stand regular, not on head.

    weight one day fully dressed 210 next day I weighed myself before bed with out a bra this time bc hey bed 213.8 could it been the fact that the bra was off allowing my 42 fs to weigh me down or just the end of the day causeing me to freak?

    Pump them full of helium, immediate 5 pound weight loss right there.

    But what if they're fake boobs? And someone else pumps my gas?

    Easy.

    Empty out the silicone (or saline) and replace with helium. As an added bonus, they'll *always* be perky.

    Oh and start pumping your own gas, you know every extra movement counts.

    That's right, and then you can pull yourself up with your own boot straps.

    Hahaha! This question was too funny!
    Your boobs weigh the same with or without your bra.
    You weighed yourself at night after a day of eating, and drinking. A person can gain up to five pounds in just one day. Thats why you're supposed to weigh yourself in the morning when you wake up.

    I don't think your bra will make much of a difference with the number on the scale! :P

    This is why I weigh myself on top of the bathroom counter and not on the floor.

    I couldn't find an activity for "pumping gas" on MFP. What's a good substitute?
