Is There Something Wrong With My Scale?



Recommended Posts

After weeks of losing 1 lb a week, (low BMI to start with), I've lost 2 lb in 2 days! I'm 13 weeks post op. Do you think the battery in the scale is dying lol? Could this be true?

Nope I'm sure there's nothing wrong with it. I've had a 4lb loss one week after only losing 1-2 lbs a week. Your body is just gonna do what it's gonna do...good and bad!

I also had a low BMI (31) prior to surgery...so I can completely relate to your post. if I saw a 2 pound loss, I'd definitely think my scale was broken and would make my husband weigh himself to see if the scale was still working! I've only seen increments of +/- 1 pound losses since surgery so any loss larger than that would shock me!

@sukik Glad to hear your scale is working! WOO HOO!!

I am almost 4 months post op on Monday, and I have lost consistently every week. Now I know I started higher than some but knock on wood I hope it continues!!

Celebrate your loss and keep doing whatever you are doing, it's working!!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
