My home scale is one pound more, so I know where I stand. I weigh myself excessively. I hate that you can gain 3-4 pounds in a day. I know it evens out overnight but I get so upset at night!

I use the Dr's scale as my official weight. But I can tell when and how much I have lost with my scale at home. I weigh at home naked just before I jump in the shower, which is usually about 4 lbs less than Dr's. Atleast the dr's scale does get calibrated every now and then.

I use the one at home. If it seems off, I'll take a 5lb weight and see how close it is. Usually it is very close.

Keep in mind, the more weight on a scale, the greater margin of error. 35 lb weight is good.
