Why does the doctors office weigh you with shoes and clothes on?
Posted by The Boat


I did a home test and the difference was 6 pounds. That’s a pretty big difference to make decisions off of.
“You need to lose 10 pounds.”
“Ok I’ll take my clothes off.”

If 6 pounds makes that much of a difference, you're fat.

It’s a doctors office. They should be used to the human form.

most people are so fat that the weight of their clothes is just a drop in the bucket

Are your clothes made of lead?
Everyone else takes off their shoes. Dummy.

I would think because of the scales location it’s better to just keep clothes on and subtract a standard number for people in certain height groups

Another good point. I can shave .75-1 pound off with a good morning poo

id argue the opposite. 6 pounds a whale of a person, who gives a frick give or take. 6 pounds on someone fit at low body weight percentage could make a huge difference.

At a doctor's office, no. For an airplane holding multiple people, yeah.

Do they ask you to pose too? Mine basically demands it, says it's part of the physical examination.

Tell me how a doctor's scales are off over 15 pounds?
Blew my mind when I stepped on it a couple weeks ago. I was 16 pounds heavier than I was when I weighed the day before. So, just to make sure, I bought a new scale on the way home and weighed on my old one and the new one. Yep, same on both and the same I weighed the day before.
16 pounds. And on the wall in their exam room was a printed paper sign that suggested you ask them about their "Weight loss shots". What the hell?
