This being Saturday and all, I just took a shower.

Before I got into the rain locker, my buck nekkid weight was 192.5 pounds.

After I got dressed and put my jack knife in my pocket and watch on, wearing moccasin type slippers, the scales said 200 pounds even. A 7 1/2 pound increase.

This weight from a typical digital bathroom scale, but I did check a few times and it seemed repeatable when I dusted off a 10 pound barbell weight (never used in years) and tried the with/without deal.

Wow...when I put on a jacket and boots the whole weight of my clothing must be close to 12 pounds.

Are my scales crazy, or does this sound right??

So you take a shower every Saturday whether you need it or not?


I always weigh myself naked too. Clothes do weigh a lot.

 

[G30SF/F-250]

I took a leak and lost .8 lbs

My slippers weigh 1.7 lbs

Full clothing is usually 8-10 lbs

.

Only when it's above freezing. Once the daily high temp gets below 32 degrees, the water gets shut off to the shower until spring....

I bet you're ripe by January.

But you only wear clothes on special occasions.

The thought of weighing my clothes has never crossed my mind.

I just weighed myself and was also around 7.5 pounds heavier fully clothed.

But what do you do when the lake freezes?

 

[deputy tom]

Yes. We discussed clothes weighing a lot while eating Thanksgiving dinner. Mine weigh ten pounds on average. Add a few more pounds with the pocket pistol and spare mag, cell phone and Epi-pen with holster. tom. :cowboy:

Get the ice auger out of the shed and drill some holes.....works better before the Budweisers though...

I am liking this thread. I lost 10 pounds and did not do a thing.

 

[alwaysshootin]

Same as blood pressure check, I'm looking for the lowest numbers possible. I too weigh myself naked. Just a heads up checking your weight with the floor models at kohl's is strongly frowned upon.

........Just a heads up checking your weight with the floor models at kohl's is strongly frowned upon.

especially if you’re buck naked when you do!

 

[Bradley T]

Your own net weight varies about 4 pounds in a day's time also. Sometimes 5.

 

[nursetim]

My pants with my edc loadout are at least 10#.

 

[pgg00]

I'm 30 lbs heavier when i go to work

 

[Gregoire G]

I have a digital scale so even a t-shirt and shorts has an effect on the total.

 

[Wojo88]

I always think about this, especially when I am out hunting like this morning. I know on a day like this, 29 degrees this AM, I had at least 40 lbs of clothes and gear to carry. Ironically I have some pretty good hi-tech clothing to wick sweat away etc and I still feel the weight even after a mile hiking in.
