The right time to weigh?

It's important when keeping a close eye on your weight not to weigh your self too much, after all, your weight is influenced by a lot of things and can flucuate by over 2 kilograms per day. This is due to eating, fluid levels, temperature, salt level . . . .well I could go on. To get the most accurate reading of your weight do the following:

  1. Always do it at the same time of day - just after you get out of bed is best (after you've been to the toilet) and before you  have breakfast
  2. No clothes - after all you are wanting just YOUR weight!
  3. Same day of the week - it's best for comparison in weight loss/gain
  4. The same scales - each can be calibrated slightly differently
With this in mind, since I didn't weigh myself until almost midday on Saturday, I got a set of scales from The Good Guys in Tuggeranong (Thank you Liz) and jumped on them this morning and the prescribed time.
To all you interested people, I now weigh 92.6kg!
