Do you weigh yourself with or without clothing??
I weigh my self every Friday. First thing in the morning, completely naked.... before I eat and after I pee!!! Every little bit counts. I feel that is my true weight. If I had false teeth I would take those out too!!!
The difference from my doctor's scale to mine is around 5-6 lbs (my appointments are always late afternoon around 4pm). I figure that accounts for clothes and food I have eaten and water I have drunk.

Yeah I have a Dr appt next week so I wanna make sure Im losing optimal weight and feel good with my visit instead of just "blah" I did have a very slow start..Seeing as I had my Lap Band surgery before Thanksgiving last year....I am now down 35+lbs....Although it is slow in the beginning (for me) my weight has been coming off faster as I exercise more (zumba classes/jogging) and eating much much better...So now the scale is on my mind and every pound counts to me...BUT Im not gonna let that get me down no more!! LOL!! Lookout summer cuz here I come
I'm soooo glad I'm not the only one that wondered this! I took my shoes off at the surgeon's office during my consultation, and the nurse giggled and said she sees people take off the strangest things. They even installed a small table next to the scale and a curtain around it! lol
I may be taking the scale-worship too far, but I've ordered a scale that tracks my progress and allows me to access my progress reports on my iphone to share with my doctors. I think it's my geek nature taking over, but I can't wait to see my charts as the weight comes off. :)

I wake up in the morning......use the bathroom, take my clothes off and get on the scale!
My hair can't be wet.......and I can't have had anything to drink....
It all sounds crazy as I reading what I wrote....LOL

Are you kidding me? I weigh nekkid, first thing in the morning, but *after* the bathroom visit. I not only take off my clothes, I pee, shave, pluck, blow my nose, *anything*, that might give me an ounce in the right direction, LOL. I never, ever, ever, get on the scales later in the day *or* with clothes!!

I usually weigh in right before I get in the shower. I know I get a little extreme when I weigh in because not only to I take off my clothes, I'll take of my wedding ring and earings. I even take off my glasses but the problem with that is that I can't see the numbers on the scale. LOL.
