How women cheat the weighing scales

Women resort to a host of bizarre tricks to kid themselves to weigh less than they actually do, a new poll has revealed.

Many admit to standing on one leg when they hop on the scales in the hope it will reduce the reading by a few pounds. And more than half confess they take all their clothes off before getting weighed, reports express.co.uk.

Thousands even said they will only get on the scales before a meal for fear their undigested dinner would add a couple of extra pounds. And in desperation to convince themselves they are lighter, almost four in 10 go to the toilet first, while one in 10 admit to breathing in as they step on the scales.

But an astonishing three per cent which translates to approximately half a million women wait until a full moon to weigh themselves in the belief this is their lightest time of the month.

Its so complicated to understand the Newton's Law but the easiest way is to undergo a pleasant and hard exercise before they go to weigh. Sure they will feel difference.

The funny thing is that only the weight changes, not the mass.

They should go to the equator which is farther from the center of gravity. The downforce (gravity) will be less according to Newton's Law which states that the gravitational force decreases by the square of distance.
