How Much Do clothes make you weigh?
The results? Women’s clothing added an average of just over 1.75 pounds, while men’s added just over 2.5 pounds. If you’re at home and weighing yourself, it’s no big deal to shed your clothes before getting on the scale.
“We can weigh 5, 6, 7 pounds more at night than we do first thing in the morning,” Hunnes says. Part of that is thanks to all the salt we consume throughout the day; the other part is that we may not have fully digested (and excreted) everything we at and drank that day yet.
Should you weigh yourself with clothes on?
Ideally, you should weigh yourself first thing in the morning, without clothing, after you’ve emptied your bladder.
Going nude is ideal, but if you’d rather not, just try to stay consistent with the amount of clothing you’re wearing when you weigh yourself. For example, you wouldn’t want to step onto the scale in your underwear one day, then weigh fresh out of the shower the next, then weigh in a sweater, jeans and slippers.
