Ok, aside from all of that techno-jumbo, I want to throw something out there - hopefully get a bit of a debate going! My husband and I were arguing over the best time you should weigh yourself to get your 'true' weight. If you weigh first thing in the morning are you cheating? If you weigh in before bed are you adding those extra grams from a tough day? Should you weigh at the same time every time to get the most accurate weight? I know that I love weighing first thing in the morning as I am always at my lightest - but is then right to change my ticker? Proclaim I have lost another kilo? I personally do not want to cheat myself by believing I have lost more weight than what I truly have - you know what I'm saying!!! Anyway, would be interested to hear what you have to say.
Hope everyone is having a lovely day.

I weigh first thing in the morning, I believe this is the time of the day when you are at the most consistent in weight (from day to day, week to week). If you weigh at night you may have had extra water that day and you will have a bigger pee in the morning because of it.
Naturally it is not cheating, because we are only interested in the
change to our weight from one point in time to another, thats how we say truthfully I lost 6.3KG last month. We are really just using our weight as a indicator to our
body fat %, our real
goal is not to weigh less but to reduce our
body fat %. I certainly wouldnt mind being 2KG heavier if it was good healthy muscle.
