So I weighed myself before I took a shower and the scale said 155.3 lbs. but then after I took a shower and put on my pajamas, I weighed myself again and it said 149.5 lbs. Is it normal that I lost nearly 6 pounds after taking a shower?
Home scales are notoriously inaccurate. You could have just been standing on it in a way that skewed the result. But all else considered equal it doesn't sound normal.
Did you have your clothes on while you were weighing yourself the first time?
It's hard to believe you were that dirty!
You know it's time for shower when your clothes start fitting tight.
It's likely that your scale is unreliable. There is no reason for anyone to lose that much in such a short amount of time. It certainly wouldn't be fat. IF you were to lose that weight it would have to be water weight meaning you peed in the shower and apparently had some kind of diuretic in your system. Although even 15 minutes would be fast for that to come off. So it is very likely just your scale.
All those comments I see including mine are filled with questions xD lol!!
Did you use the scale somewhere else? Mechanical scales are meant to be used on solid surfaces. Using them on carpet can give you an inaccurate readout. Sounds ridiculous, but it's true.
Could be. Were you homeless, living on the street? Might have been filth. Congratulations on your new apartment! You must be very proud. :-D
