Why weighing NUDE is wrong!

Master does not let me wear cloths at home.0

It's also more convenient to be already nude since every time I step on the scale and can now read it without bending over I get "excited" :bigsmile:0

It's a non-issue.
Doctor's office scale (clothed) tends to show me at 3 pounds heavier than my home scale (naked).
So what?0 -
I always evacuate my colon, and administer a coffee enema before weighing myself.0

Wait, we get to count our clothes as body weight? Is that LBM or fat tissue? I assume not water weight...0

:huh: But my clothes aren't actually a part of me. I want to know what I weigh - not my clothes.
^haha I agree with this! I expect it to be different at the dr but I don't compare that to what i weigh at home. Apples to apples... as long as one consistantly weighs at the same time and in the same (nude/clothed) condition, one sees progress.0 -

Is this really even a post? I mean really? Who cares if you weigh in the nude or with clothes on?? It's up to the person. Next?0

I always weigh myself when I'm naked.
Although the security in the shop weren't too impressed when I tried testing the scales when I went to buy a new one. :grumble:0 -
Let me know If anyone has questions on how to weigh themselves nude.. I will send video to show proper technique0

I think the only time it makes a difference is if you are trying to ensure weight standards for something like military service -- the difference of weight between scales & clothing can have a HUGE impact on your quality of life...0 -

You're doing it wrong, you have to set up a digital drop box for people to send videos to you so you can critique there...."form"0 -
Actually I think clothes can bring you down. If you are stepping on a scale fully clothed you are adding like a pound or two. That can hurt you mentally because it seems like no weight is being lost. I weigh in my undies so I can know exactly what I weigh. To each his/ her own.0

I weight on my wii fit... It's give option to take off allowance for clothes I never do so I suppose I'm weighing with what I have on. Pretty light clothes tho....
I just lost a little over 2 lbs on my ticker because it finally clicked in that selecting 'light clothes' on my Wii Fit was the reason my home number and gym number was different ! :laugh: I'm a little slow in the mornings.... :yawn:0 -
I prefer seeing my measurements Far more satisfying =D
Me too. I was surprised by that actually. I'd been very happy losing a pound a week but when I felt like my clothes were looser and I measured and saw I'd lost inches from my weight I was ten times happier. And fitting into a dress I hadn't worn in years gave me so much more pleasure than a number on a scale0 -
Might be wrong for YOU since you seem to often weigh yourself outside the home....I only weigh myself at home...and the doctor weighs in kg while I weigh in in pounds, so I don't pay attention to what the weight at the drs office is anyways. I prefer to weigh myself before I put clothes on for the day...I can't imagine wearing the same clothes every day just to get good scale reading.0

I weigh myself in the morning after going to the bathroom, and I am always in the buff (because I sleep sans clothing). It's not something I think about. Also, I never weigh myself at any other time of day, so it will always be consistent. I'm not worried about it.
I am the same. I only ever weigh myself on the same scales because then it's consistent. I also weigh myself at the same time of the day while I am naked.0 -
I weigh in the nude at home. I always use the same scale.
I don't care what my clothes weigh or what I weigh at the doctor's office or anywhere else. Yes, scales weigh differently; pick ONE scale & use that for tracking.
And please do not use the scale as your only means of judging progress. It only measures total weight.0 -
I only weigh myself every two weeks at my health clinic with clothes and shoes on. Even though I have another 30 kilos to lose I don't really care what I weigh from one weigh-in to the other. What interests me is my general state of health, my measurements and only lastly what I weigh. And since my clothing is pretty much the same each time , I am happy if the scale goes down even with clothes on. If I weighed 94 kilos last Friday and maybe weigh 92 kilos next Friday it means that I have lost 2 kilos/4.4 pounds if I am naked or not.0
