Silly Question

I know this is a wierd question, but when you go in to get weighed by your surgeon for the first time, are you in your clothes and shoes or do you wear a gown and go bare feet?

I don't think it's a silly question but I wonder if it's the same for everyone. I'm in my clothes for weigh-in, but I take my shoes off.

For me it was (and still is) clothes and shoes.

I was in my clothes but had to take my shoes off. Funny thing, the nurse measured me @ 5'5 1/2 inches tall. I am 5'6" flat footed. I have been since I was a teen. I wonder if this is a bit of padding the docs use to make sure your BMI is higher. <_<

I am also 5'6" and was measured at 5'5.5! I was thinking the same thing re: the BMI, but didnt really care as long as it got me approved!

Clothes and shoes for me!

Clothes on, shoes and stockings off (for body fat percentage measurement). I actually wear nylons or tights so it's a bit of an ordeal.
