I never step on my scale, don't like the numbers. Anyway this morning I decided to see how I was doing since my shirts and pants are feeling loose. The first time it showed I had gained 6 pounds, (WHAT) I knew that couldn't be right so I stepped off and zeroed it out and tried again, It now showed I had lost a pound. In all I tried 6 times got 6 different readings with a difference of 7 pounds. I should have stopped at the lowest reading and been happy not confused. I think I need a new scale or new batteries.

Haha...I do the SAME THING...I have even gotten completely undressed in the middle of the afternoon to get a more accurate reading LOL

I weigh first thing in the morning and sometimes my scale does me like that - I'll get three different numbers. But it's the cheapest digital scale WalMart had, so I'll probably look in to buying one thats a little more reliable. LOL

Mine does the same thing I bought a moderately priced scale and I try to make sure it's in the same spot on floor yes I count the tiles to make sure it's always in the same place lol. I fluctuate about 2-5 lbs so although I weigh everyday ( I know I shouldn't) I only record my Monday morning weight. Since I started preop on Monday n was banded on a Monday

I'm afraid to but a $100.00 scale just for the same thing to happen. Sigh.... N once a month at surgeon is not enough for me n I weigh3lbs more on his scale

Sounds like its time for a new scale if you ask me

My scale does the same thing. I was told that when it does that it needs new batteries.I haven't tried it yet though.

I think mine lies as well. I am counting calories and doing zumba on my days off to prepare for surgery. I can't seem to lose the weight!!! Some people said I might be building muscle but who knows!? It's very frustrating!

Mine varies depending on where I stand on it, or if I lean to the side, front, back, etc.

I just went through three scales that had the same issue. I kept returning them to bed bath and beyond. I finally bought an analog (dial) scale, and that seems to work better. The only downside is I have to get my husband to read it for me bc the little lines are too damn close together!!

My scale didn't move well it said I gained 0.2 I just kept doing what I was doing n dropped 5 pounds this week so slow steady n focused and we will get there one ounces at a time it all adds up !!!

I had to get a new scale because of the sane problem - I just got a weight watcher scale - I16365 sw 279th street

Wth was that - sorry -my scale was doing the same thing and I bought a weight watchers scale at Walmart and it was inexpensive and it's accurate just suggestion
