weighing
 

just wondering,. when should one weigh oneself. to be accurate

because just before you go to sleep is one weight, then when you just wake up its another....so???????????????

1) Weigh yourself at the same time in any day so as to be consistent. If you're heavier at night and lighter in the morning, it's all relative.

2) Saying that, I think considered opinion is to weigh yourself first thing in the morning.

Same time each day.

But unless you're a boxer who is fighting a weigh-in it doesn't really matter.

If you're a dieter, then only weigh yourself on a week, max!!!!

I dont think it matters too much.. i can gain or lose half a stone in a like 2 days :confused:

Best to take a dump before you do weigh yourself though :D

i used to wonder if someone weighs 11 stone 6 pounds and had a dump which was about 2 pounds why don't they weigh 11 stone 4 pounds afterwards :)

"i used to wonder if someone weighs 11 stone 6 pounds and had a dump which was about 2 pounds why don't they weigh 11 stone 4 pounds afterwards "

they do.

2 pound dump :eek: I've had a nice big steak in my time, but 2Lb!!!???

is there anything else like this you wonder about? do you want to speak to someone? :D

If you get wind and don't let it out then that can make you lighter too.
Think its because fart-gas is lighter than air.

Try farting into a balloon, tie a not and watch it float up to the ceiling.

'Try farting into a balloon'

Bet your kids parties are fun, send em home with a methane balloon.

After your 1st piss in the morning is your true weight

im 16st4 on a night but 15st13 on a morning ;)

Sadly Methane (CH4) is heavier than air. Hot air is however lighter than cool air and seeing as all this is spouting from your ass, that would seem appropriate :D

once every couple of weeks in the morning before eating anything. when dieting, i do it as far apart from carb-up/refeeds as possible as these can skew things with water retention.

i only do it to ensure i havent lost too much weight.

i use the tape measure and body capliers more often than weighing - leads to far more accurate estimates of the bodyfat that you've lost.

Actually methane is less dense than air
