No shoes at WW WI for me, but more out of routine than anything else. Ya know, consistency going back to day 1....

I ALWAYS take off my shoes before I WI at WW and Dr visits.

But I went to my most recent Dr visit and yesterday at a Cardiologist I had my shoes on! The nurse said we take off 5 Lbs for your shoes.

I'm impressed.


Mostly that the cardiologist takes off five pounds for the shoes. I've got to get the name of that doctor.

I have two weigh-modes: at meetings it's work clothes, sans shoes, empty pockets. At home I wear a suit. Of the birthday variety.

5# allowance for shoes? What's the address? I think I found my ticket to get across the border to Onederland!

Heck I even would take my tatoos off to weigh in. Teehee. We are required to wear socks at all WW centers these days but socks don't weigh much. If I didn't take off my winter outer clothes and shoes I would easily weigh 10 LB more than I do in my "weighing outfit". I started biking to WW so always weigh in my lycra shorts, bike jersey, and socks year-round. Oddly at home I don't weigh "nekkid" but wear the same or equivalent weight of skimpy clothes that I wear at meetings. Just don't like adding and subtracting for a common comparison. My PJs weigh about the same as the bike outfit or close enough.

Yep birthday suit first thing in the morning after I pee and before coffee. I confess sometimes I forget and have the coffee. I've weighed a cup of coffee so I can mentally subtract that.
