    I've always weighed with whatever I happened to be wearing at the time. But after reading all the posts, I'm switching to nudie.

    Naked - pre shower - difference of 2.4kg when compared to post shower, with undies, bra, necklace and glasses, although the latter is what I enter on MFP.!

    I weigh in in my slippers. But I've weighed them, and so they're easy to take into account.... because it's cold, that's why.

    I strip down to weigh in. I even take off jewelry (even though I know it doesn't make much of a difference). I'm kinda anal about it. Oh and I never weigh when my hair is wet, because I'm convinced it's a lot heavier haha

    It does!!!! I tried it once when my hair was about at my bra strap in the back and it was several pounds!

    It's the only way to weigh-in!! My Tuesday morning routine...get out of bed, empty my bladder, strip down to nothing, weigh and measure, get in the shower. :wink:

    We're converting some people (:

    I don't think I get undressed faster any other time than right when I come out from peeing.
    Is it too much to compare it to Christmas morning..? bahaha

    I've always weighed myself at the gym and clothed- my job would complicate the whole indecent exposure thing :P Though after reading all the above it might be time to jump on the bandwagon and get some scales for home!

    The other day I was going to the dr's for this stupid cold that doesn't want to go away and I knew they would weigh me, So I weighed with no clothes and then weighed with the clothes and shoes I was wearing so I could see how much it added. That way I wouldn't be disappointed too much for weighing more there. I knew I could subtract the 2.5 lbs from what I weighed there.

    I weigh naked in the morning right before I get in the shower, after I go to the bathroom, making sure to wash my hands to get any heavy germs off, no lotion, no jewelry, no nothin'

    Lol i'm only exaggerating a little :)

    I wear only my glasses, 'cause I can't see the scale without 'em. Otherwise, I weigh myself in the same condition the nurse first weighed me after my momma brought me into this world. :wink:

    I'd do that at home but I don't have a scale at home and am not willing to spend any more time than needed naked in the locker room. I swim once a week so I usually weigh on Monday's, post work out, but before I get in the pool so I'm just in my swimsuit which is lighter than my beach towel and lighter than my regular clothes and my hair isn't wet so I don't have any extra weight from that.

    Yep. I was really upset one day because according to the scale I gained 3 pounds over night. Apparently I was just wearing 3 pound pants. I always take them off now.

    I don't weigh naked. I take my shoes off and I'm not excessively concerned about a pound or so either way. I don't like stripping down just to weigh myself, and I don't trust the accuracy of my bathroom scale.

    Just a tank top, panties and my glasses. Can't see the scale without them.

    yeah I weigh naked. I wear steel toed boots, a heavy steel buckle on my belt, and you'd be surprised how much denim can weigh. I actually did a comparison once fully clothed and naked. About 10-15lbs.

    I weigh in every morning right out of the shower naked...leave to do cardio and come back and weigh in again...crazy I know but you'd be surprised that the scale does go down!

    Always in the buff, just before I shower first thing in the morning.

    Ditto! And no jewelry either. I know it probably doesn't make a difference, but oh well.

    I weigh myself while wearing my undies and a light shirt. Basically what I just slept in. I weigh myself the exact same way every time.
