Anyone wish they were weighed in the morning?

[sophieann]

How I wish I was weighed in the mornings!!! I am always around 5 pounds lighter in the morning than at 7pm. It's frustrating because when I want to celebrate getting under 10 stone, I'll probably have to wait another month or so for it to be official - ha ha!!

SO fellow SW'ers..... What do you class as your 'true' weight? Morning or evening? Would love to hear your responses!!! Xxxxxxxx

Hi sophieanne, my group is a lunchtime one, so I always weigh in about 12.30pm. I am also heavier at night, but so long as yr weight is going down nicely you will soon get there.

Not really cos if your class was in the morning you'd have been 5lbs lighter to begin with, so itd just be the same?

I do! Just wish i could get it over with lol i tend to plan my foods etc on wi day, so no big lunches etc, i know i shouldnt but cant help it! Tends to be hifi lights, soup n bit if fruit lol if i changed now would muck up my losses x

I do to some extent, but not really, I hate waiting to go get weighed, but the fact that you weigh less in the morning doesn't bother me, because I'd rather know I was being weighed at my heaviest rather then weighing first thing and then thinking I was lighter then what I was during the day (I'm less likely to get weighed at the doctors and weigh more then what I think I weigh)

I weigh in first thing on a Sunday morning and have to say I prefer it simply because In my opinion it's your true weight...it's not influenced by if you've had a heavy meal or a bottle of water. In the end though it really makes no difference, those who weigh in the morning know their weight will go up a few pounds over the course of the day and similarly evening weighed know their weight will go down a few pounds over night.

I weigh at home first thing Monday mornings and I think It's the most accurate but OH weighs in the evening. I've never been to class but I think I'd be worried to eat on WI day as I normally put on around 3lb during the day

i weigh in the evening too at 7.30pm, i think id rather weigh in the morning so that i could get it over with lol, but at the same time its the only time i leave the house on my own so an hour or so in the evening is nice im not too bothered about the fluctulating weight thing as i only weigh at group and as long as i show a loss im happy lol xXx

Meeeee!!! I'd love to be weighed in the morning. My weight is much more stable then. I react to sooooo many foods so I know by 8pm when I get weighed I'm often several pounds heavier. But it varies so much that I can WI with a good loss that I KNOW isn't real weight it's just looking like that as i was more bloated the week before!! If I WI in the morning the results are more consistent.

I used to go to an evening group and would literally starve myself all day and then come home and eat whatever wasnt naled down.....

I now weigh in at 9.30 on a Tuesday morning and have a hi fi for breakfast during class and then eat normally for the rest of the day. I obviously much prefer this lol.

I think if you just eat as normal when u have an evening class is better. I weigh in. At 5:30 on a wednesday and I am at work all day there's no way I couldn't eat all that time!! Have a normal breakfast, then I will have salads and mugshots, jacket potatoes and beans for lunch and then I don't have time for dinner before weigh in so I just have it at 7 when I come home. The best is to just eat normal! Its still gonna be accurate as its the same time every week. I think I only weigh a couple of pounds lighter on a morning lol if I go to the docs its on a morning and I'm not that much lighter when the nurse weighs me

I try to eat normally on WI day but my class is at 7 and hubby gets in at half 6 so I either gobble and run to class feeling stuffed or I wait till I get back and treat myself to a Hifi while I'm there!! My DD comes along with me and she's a bit of a Hifi fanatic lol

im weird- i always seem to do better getting weighed at 5pm than in the morning or at lunchtime!

i prefer to weigh in the evening- even though it would be nice to get it over and done with earlier!!

 

[sophieann]

Thanks for all your replies its been interesting to read everyone's different takes on this. I suppose my reason for preferring my morning weight is that I have a goal in mind. I didn't care about my start weight or how many pounds I lose, I just want to be 'x' stones and my evening WI just adds another month to reach that point :-D It's all fun though and I must admit that I LOVE going to SW club - I always look forward to it

i completed my journey doing wi in evening at 5.30....then moved to a morning class....and now im back in the eve class(still at target).

whilst i prefer the morning wi because i dont get hungry i actually do better in the evening wi!!

i dont starve myself...i have a normal breakfast of whatever i fancy,a mid morn snack of fruit if i need and then lunch...admitedly i keep lunch light(mugshot and fruit kind of thing).i have my last food and drink(lunch) around 1pm....sips of drink only after that until wi at 5.
i tend to find be doing this i return to the weight i was first thing in the morning by wi....sometimes even 0.5lb lighter!

i return from class then motivated and apart from the odd occasion completely on plan and within syns.....when i used to go to morning classes for a bit id leave unmotivated and with a its wi day lets eat whatever mentality! strange but true!
