Scale issue..

[AND:) 0]

Today I weighed and the number came up and I was shocked by the number because it was lower than i thought id be.

Then I went and weighed on the other scale in the closet and it was +6 pounds than what the first scale said.

6 pounds mean alot to me as im sure it would for all of you.

Is it possible for your scale to weigh you less than you really are? Or which one should I go by??

All scales vary. Some are more accurate than others.

Do you have dumbbells around? Try weighing one and see which scale displays the closest weight.

I agree about using the one that is the most accurate. But, choose one and use it each time.

I weigh each morning after going to the bathroom & completely naked. (That way I can blame a meal or what I am wearing on variances.)

That's a good idea about weighing the dumbbells! If you can, stick with one scale... even if your weight isn't accurate at least the difference from the week before will be

Thanks you guys! I'll place a weight on there tonight ... didnt think of doing that -- good idea!

I feel your pain! I have an expensive electronic scale upstairs and everytime I weigh (one after another!) I get a different weight! lol So I go downstairs to my husbands old clunker and weigh there since I know it's pretty much the same all the time. And I'm like you - I get very "bummed" if I don't think it's where it should be! (smile)

Ladies, stay off those damn scales. Look in the mirror, go try on new clothes.
