I don't know about the rest of you, but there are no movements for me until I've had two cups of coffee. I get up, pee, sit and drink 20oz of water and about 16 oz of coffee. Then I can move, and weigh. (The trouble is that I can't always get rid of the water and coffee along with the rest of it. I am quite certain that this is the primary reason that I'm not incredibly light and skinny.) Still, I don't weigh until my BM. I see no reason to count last night's dinner as part of my bodyweight!

If I waited for a BM it would be around noon before I weighed. By that point I have drank tons of water and had 2-3 meals. So I just weigh first thing in the morning. And I don't drink coffee because I cut caffeine out.

I weigh myself in a gym, so that might not be such a good idea for me.

I always weigh myself second thing in the morning, right after I uhm use the restroom.

I too am a firm believer of emptying out my bladder and weighing naked. Of course, i feel like a liar to my boyfriend when i brag about what i weighed that morning and then i get on the scales and it says 4 pounds higher. It's just not fair!!!!

I'm glad to hear that I am not cheating or breaking any laws by weighing myself after the doo and naked. I just went and weighed myself and am down a few pounds, but then again I haven't weighed myself since 7/26. I did break the law though by drinking 2 mugs of coffee (20-24 oz each) and eating cereal before weighing.

EZ: once again, you've cracked me up!

Katrina: that is an excellent way to weigh yourself...I think I will try that.

I weigh myself on Sunday morning. Get up, pee, strip naked, weigh. I believe consistency is the most important factor of weighing. If I wear pajamas when I weigh, I should always wear pajamas. If I weigh in the morning, I should always weigh in the morning, etc.

[hopingtobehopeful]

I wake up, pee, shower and exfoliate and THEN weigh naked. (After, of course, towel drying my hair as much as possible.) And it's the only weight I write down. I read once the you can be 1/2 pound lighter after a shower and tried it out. It's true! The only problem is that I hate to shower before coffee because I'm afraid I'll drown........

[GirlyGirlSebas]

Every single morning,I wake up, walk to the toilet, do my duty...then carefully and gently step on the scales, making sure to put my feet in the exact same spot every time....afterall, they are a very very sensitive piece of equipment and I don't want to upset them!

[Azure]

I think most of us ladies have the same routine! Wake up, pee, strip naked then weigh Consistency is key. I do this the SAME way every morning--so that I know if I see numbers going down, it's not because I'm wearing something different or didn't have a glass of water beforehand

[trooworld]

This morning, I got up and drank some coffee (okay, that probably wasn't helpful to my weighing), did an aerobics video (sweated a lot, that probably helped it) and went to the bathroom. AND I am down a little bit, so that's going to be my method from now on. Do what I have to do, exercise if I'm going to, then weigh. I can use all the help I can get, so I am going to try to sweat as much as possible! haha

my best weigh in days are when I manage to nurse boob a, pump boob b and have my "constitutional" all before eating or drinking. Very rarely does that all happen though.

So ENNAY is THAT what they mean by multi-tasking?

I've been known to take off my glasses before weighing and definitely no earrings.

I'm currently evaluating the benefits of shaving my legs first.
