When your weekly weigh in rolls around don t hop on the scale after drinking a bottle of water or eating a meal.
Is it better to weigh yourself on carpet or tile.
And this makes sense says mackay as more people have easy access to a solid floor than to a deep shag pile carpet.
Carpet is really inaccurate and the best reading will be on a tile wood flat surface also the evenness of the floor plays a role in the reading as well.
Now i thought the carpet would of added like 1kg so i carried on weighing myself in my room.
Carpet isn t a great place for your scale.
If a scale is on carpet uneven tile or wood it can also appear to be calibrated poorly says kantor.
My brother did a test between carpet and tile just to see the difference and the difference was about 30 lbs lighter than his actual weight.
The right way to weigh yourself.
Suddenly i ve dropped 6 5 kg.
I might look into getting a better scale soon with increments by the tenth of a pound.
Then this morning i thought i should just see what the difference was in the bathroom.
Hard wood flooring concrete or level ceramic tile would be a good location for your scale.
For the most accurate weight weigh yourself first thing in the morning.
