It could have to do with the time of day you are being weighed. You may not find one that is exactly with your doctor's scale. If you weigh yourself at the same time ( I do mornings) then your scale will accurately show your loss.

Did he weigh you on HIS scale the morning of your surgery? Probably not, you were at the hospital, but you probably did at home. Don't worry about the differences you are seeing, but if it REALLY bothers you, then the next time you go to him, as soon as you leave, go to the store and buy several scales and weigh when you get home. Don't use the bathroom and see which one gets you closest to the doctor's scale. Then, return the others. To me, though, I just wouldn't worry about it. You know you are doing well, and that is all that matters.:cursing:

I don't count what the doctors scale says - only mine at home because by the time I see the doctor, I've already had a meal or 2 plus I'm fully clothed.
