I think my scale needs a remedial math course...



Recommended Posts

So my scale, brand new bought end of January I might add has math issues!

Yesterday my weight was 193

Today I am 192.3

My scale said.... +1.2 lbs

EXCUSE ME???

Sorry boo but I'm my world that's a Loss!!

Anyone else need to check their scales "math?"

Mine is nutty or maybe just cruel! Lol

One has to wonder what your scale has been doing - up too late carousing with the toaster and the food processor? (you know what bad influences they can be!)

Lol you think I would be a better "scale parent" and know who my scale is hanging out with!

At this point I think summer school might be inevitable [emoji1]

I agree that bmi can often be just a guideline and not the Mecca some believe it to be . As long as you are healthy and happy with your weight loss, consider yourself lucky.

Those scales cannot be right !!

I ( I only weighed at the doctors office and was pleased as time went on.)

Still pleased 9 years later....

Feel successful with weight loss instead of that yo-yo

Problem I had for years!

Good luck and please keep posting. Lots of us care and want success for others!

I have officially diagnosed my scale as schizophrenic.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
