Scientific Experiment

[Sandrah78]

I'm hoping this will prove that we are wasting our time by weighing everyday - we don't need to know the fluctuations just our official WI results.

i agree but it is an addiction isnt it - so hard to stop :/

I've stayed away from my scales for 2 wks but I don't how much longer this will last :sigh:

Why not also check out my 'honest and open' food diary to see what I'm eating - that way when the scales go up, like today you'll not have a clue why either lol

I'm not sure how this is going to work for the tea time WI as I tend to wear jeans and trainers rather than my work trousers and shoes at the weekend. I'll WI with no footwear to compensate for the jeans - so my apologies but Saturday and Sunday tea time WI's won't be too acurate (but by the results so far my official WI is the only one that counts)

looks like you are always lighter in the morning, by at least 2-3lb, must be because you've not eaten or something.......

 

[Sandrah78]

yep but also because I'm unclothed! My clothes and food over the day don't seem to make that much difference it's the difference in weight at the same time of day that I can't quite understand. I knwo it's just fluctuations and what the 'experiement' is trying to prove is that there are a lot of ups and downs over the week but the only one that counts is the official SW WI.

 

[zenabob2105]

I know what you mean, I go on wii Fit and it tells you your weight can fluctuate +/-2.2lbs in a day, which you are proving....

 

[zenabob2105]

As my husband just said a visit to the toilet can make a lbs difference....lol

I think today is a major point for me as my weight is more than my official WI and with no good reason (my food diaries prove this). The scales are evil! I'm hoping for a much better result Wednesday teatime before class.

 

[mod-karen79]

i usually gain a few days before weigh-in then drop on weigh-in day.... our bodies are wierd!

 

[Sandrah78]

I hope that happens for me!
