weight yourself at the same time every time you do it, like always at mid day or something

I've been told that the morning is the best time to carry out body composition tests, so i can only assume it's the same with weighing yourself.

I normally do it in the momrning as i havent eaten or drunk anything yet, which adds weight.

Do it when you wake up. That way you've not eaten or drunk anything so it should be fairly accurate every day.

sounds gross

wiegh your self as soon as you get up, naked (with some underwear for modisty obviously :blushing: ) and after you had a peep and a poop

I thought that weighing yourself in the morning as soon as you get up isn't that good because your body tends to hold/collect water then.
Atleast that's what it said in the booklet that came with my scale.

Also remember if the person weighing is female, your likely to increase in weight at certain points of your cycle because of retaining water. Thats where the bloated feeling can come from.
