Weigh Day Clothes

[Dimplenose]

Do most people have special clothes they wear for weighing in. I'm asking beccause I was a bit disappointed with my loss this week (half a pound) when I realised that last week I was wearing T-shirt and shorts and this week blouse and trousers. I haven't tried weighing them on the kitchen scales to see if there is much difference, although I have thought about it.

As I belong to a slimming club weighing myslef naked isn't an option!!

It does make some difference. the other day my husband and I weighed ourselves w/o clothes (at home I hasten to add) and then got dressed and weighed again immediately. He was wearing t-shirt/shorts and only went up by about a pound. I was wearing jeans/t shirt/trainers and went up about 3 pounds.

I ALWAYS try to wear the lightest clothes possible and then I kick off my shoes and take off any jacket or sweater I might be wearing before I hop on the scale at Weight Watchers. They told me the only thing I need to keep on are my stockings (for health reasons you can't go barefoot on the scale) but modesty prevents me from stripping in front of other people. Well, at least until I get to my goal weight!

Under pants. Score one for weighing in the privacy of my own bathroom!!!

SORRY TO BUTT IN, BUT I'D LIKE TO SUGGEST YOU WEAR SOMETHING LIGHT AND WEAR THE SAME THING EVERYTIME YOUR WEIGHED. (I DID THIS WHILE I WAS PREGNANT) GOOD LUCK!

I wear the same thing every week, the people at ww probably think i only have 1 set of clothes

I weigh myself at home now jsut before the shower but when I belonged to WW, I always wore the same thing for weigh in. Our leader suggested it to us.

LOL. I was wearing light sandles in the winter. How vain am I?

I always try to wear something light weight on my weight watchers weigh in day. Since I go on my way home from work, I usually wear a pair of slacks and a blouse. AND I ALWAYS potty right before getting on the scales.

I try to pretty much wear the same thing each week.

I always wear the same exact clothes on weigh in day. I once saw a woman take off her jeans at the scale!!

Another one for weight in in the bum!LOL Thank goodness my scales are at home.LOL

I weigh myself Naked in the AM right after I get up off the potty! BUT when I did have a weigh in I bought some running shorts..very light, and a tank top to go in. Even if it was before or after work..I would change before I got there or after I left (back into work clothes.)

Another vote for NEKKID! ! ! Usually when I'm changing into my workout clothes, sometimes I have just my white ankle socks on -- a sight to behold .

Thanks for your replies, I think I'll try and sort out some "weighing clothes" or at least wear shorts for the next few weeks (or as long as our English summer allows). At least I won't be able to blame my clothes for a poor result next time.

I always wear the same thing when I weigh in and I always weigh myself at the same time of day.

Are you doing weight training, Libby?
