Morning, after you drop the Duece0

I joke that I even weigh in pre shower as wet hair weighs more ...0

You'll weigh your lowest first thing after you wake up, but I like to weigh myself later in the day. I know the number is higher, but I also weigh myself clothed too. I just feel like it's a more accurate representation of what I actually weigh...but I'm a little strange. So just do whatever you feel works best!
I'm sure you are not strange, that's basically what I do. Midday fully clothed (would be pushing it to strip down at the local pharmacy ), in theory I way a little less as the clothes weigh something.
It works for me as I have always had issues with home scales so I go to the same machine to try and get consistency.0 -
I weigh myself after a wee first thing in the morning with nothing on.
If you do it clothed, then it's a bit hard as everything you wear is a slightly different weight, plus you might have drunk more water during a day which can add "weight" or eaten a heavy meal.. by the morning you'll get an accurate result of what you really weigh.0 -
After you drop the kids off at the pool, definitely! :P
For me it's Saturday (no pun intended) first thing (usually around 6.30am) naked in the bathroom.
I like Saturday :happy: because I know that the weekends are unpredictable and usually involve more sociable eating and especially drinking :drinker: , so Sunday or Monday would be too disheartening for me :laugh: Then I've got all week ahead to be good :devil: :laugh:0 -
am i the only depraved individual that weighs himself before AND after a crap??
i swear, once i actually gained a pound. it must have been muscle, because i was straining myself.
You're not alone! I do it almost every time. And I'ved gained afterwards before and been like wtf!0 -
I like to weigh myself in the morning after going to the toilet but also like to weigh before I go to bed, interesting to see what sleep does to your weight.0

I always weigh myself in the morning, after taking a piss :L
Same here! I weigh myself once a week on the same day too.0 -
I love all the replies, and it is the way I feel too. I weigh myself on thrusday morning, it is after my mid week workout ( I do three really big swims a week, I am on a competive swim team).
It was great seeing all the respones and reasons as to why we do what we do
Thanks!!:happy:0 -
Seriously! I've had a good poo take my weight down 2lbs. Wild and a little disgusting but its motivational aha.
You're so pretty.0 -
i have no idea why this is but i usually weigh less after i get home from class like in the evenings ill weigh 147.4 morning usually 146.3 then when i get home 145.5 or so just estimates obviously this changes each time i go up and down on the scale but thats usually my average fluctuation up 2lbs at night down 1 in the morning down close to another one after i get out of school but i eat light in the mornings and there are bathroom visits lol0
