Looks like I am the only one who weighs dressed, cell phone, wallet and keys in pockets. I don't trust my scale at home so I weigh when I arrive at work at 5:30am. The scale here is one with a balancing arm like in the Dr's office. Since I always weigh at the same time and dressed similarly I think it doesn't matter. Anyway getting nekkid in the men's bathroom at work would not look real good.
Yep, I weigh myself in the nude too just as soon as the kids go to school. Our scale is between their rooms (teenage daughters)....so obviously I have to wait for those skinny chiks to leave the house first.
I weigh in the nude when I get up. DH weighs in the evening, after work, in his clothes. We both see results.
And Cleo? If you want to weigh in the dark, get yourself a scale like mine...it may not be the most accurate, but it's a digital with a glowing red readout. At this time I think of them as "The numbers sent from ****" :confused

I weigh in my undies first thing when I get up in the morning after I go potty. I'm better friends with my tape measure though so I haven't been weighing myself as much as I used to.

my scale does the bodyfat thing, so it's usually barefoot just before i hop in the shower. i usually down about 32 some-odd ounces of water just before bed to ensure i wake up ontime in the morning, so i weigh after i run to the bathroom and pee! that water gone alone makes a difference. i'd hate to weigh clothed with all my stuff on...a half pound of keys, a pound of techno-gadgets, about 5 pounds of clothes and boots....god knows how much change
While not a pretty site, it's not official unless I am as I came into the world.
Bowolf, even in your latest picture you can't possibly be the way you were when you came into the world!
Me? I step naked out of bed and walk to what you Americans coyly call the washroom, then move on to the bathroom. When it's dark in the mornings I turn the bathroom light on as I walk into the washroom, so by the time I stand on the bathroom scales enough light has fallen on their photocell to power up the liquid crystal display. Oh, I forgot to mention, I put on my glasses as I step out of bed, otherwise I wouldn't be able to read the number of stones and number of pounds. So, I weigh myself naked except for my glasses!

Atkins makes exercise mandatory - I took up cycling - see last pics at 203lb.
I do the nakkie thing to. After I work out at the gym. Maybe I should invest in a scale for my house? But the tape measure has become my best friend, unlike that mean ole scale

1st pic Pre restarting atkins @ 217 lbs. 2nd pic 20 lbs lighter @ 197 lbs! on 3/1/08 :oha:
Oh so naked. I already know that if I stepped on the scale w/ clothes on and didn't like what I see, I'd be stripping off the clothes to see if I weighed less w/out them. Might as well save myself the time and start stripped down. GO NAKED PEOPLE!
