So I just started my 6 mo documented diet plan required by my insurance and my scale is driving me insane. I can't tell if it's no longer working or if I really fluctuate this much from day to day. I just find it hard to believe I gain or lose around 2-3 lbs a day! Does anyone have any recommendations for a accurate home scale? I know mine will always differ from my doctors but to at least see some consistency would be nice.

Any advice would be appreciated!

I weigh daily, every morning after my shower. I use the app Happy scale which has a great graphic pic for me to see my downward trend. It also sets goal and shows your wt loss in 7 days/ a month/3 mon/ total...right there on the main page.

You can choose to track by actual or average trend (for those that get discouraged with any gain)

Weighing daily is a motivation tool for me....either a "yayy I'm on track" or "gotta watch things better".

I will NOT weigh myself again until I get feeling better emotionally. This past few days have been draining for me. Plus I should find out this week if my Surgeon will do surgery on me (chronic health problems). I have been hanging on by a thread and fighting the urge to eat what I shouldn't. I am afraid if I find that my scale isn't doing what it to, I will fall off the wagon and there goes my hope of better health.

So I will simply avoid the scale till I am able to handle whatever it says.
