UH HUH you guessed it, it's me ok. lol I have a question and then I have a comment about the question. So here goes.

When you gals weigh yourselves do you do it with or without your clothes on? Did you know that if you weight with you clothes on (even night clothes) you can add atleast 2 pounds to what the scales tell you? That's right, you can.

I just weighed myself a couple minutes ago both ways. First with a nightgown and night pants on, scales said 256,

I took everything I had off and weighed again and it said 254. I like the naked answer much much better.

So the question is, which is the proper way to weigh? Clothed or naked?

in the morning after i pee and naked

OH BOY gilliebean, I had a sip of hot tea with apple cider in my mouth when I read your reply. when I read pee, I just about spit out my drink. Not sure why, but that was funny. Maybe just cause I am in a good mood.

I weighed myself and saw it said ten pounds, I ran back into my room got my cell phone, weighed again and took a picture of it saying 254 and sent it to my husband. lol:w00t:

I also weigh in the morning, after I pee, and ditch my clothes. Even a night shirt and panties make a difference. I weigh every day so I can adjust my eating if I bounce up some. At the surgeon's office it is usually late in the day, after having eaten Breakfast and lunch, fully clothed with sneakers on. I am usually 7 pounds heavier in his office. I go by what I weigh at home when I tell someone how much weight I have lost.:rolleyes:

I weight myself with no clothes in the morning. I notice that I am at the same weight that way as at the doctors with clothes. So my scale adds a pound or two. I heard that from my friends as well when they use my scale.

It really doesn't matter what you are wearing when you weigh, but you do need to keep it consistent. You should really only be concentrating on the CHANGE in your weight so if you always weigh in your undies then you shouldn't weigh one day with your clothes on. I agree, I wait until I pee first!

In the morning, after completely "unloading", nekked.:rolleyes: When I go to the doctor (tomorrow for my 3rd fill) I wear light clothing and remove the shoes. My sneakers add 2 lbs alone. My scale is calibrated to the one at the doctors office.

In the morning after I pee, poop (if I'm lucky), no jewlery, no clothes, nothing that might possibly add a pound or two!!!

I agree that you need to be consistent with what you wear )or don't wear) and try to weigh at the same time of day.

In the morning after I use the potty and in my jammies :smile2:

I agree with lanakila, it really doesn't matter as long as you are consistent.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
