By "took", did you mean leave one in the bowl or pick one up and put it in your pocket?

The former would mean your scale's readings are fluctuating, the latter means you picked up a 1 pound poop and put it in your pocket.

I am betting on the former. :)

Your weight was probably right between two weights when you measure it. Any little thing can cause the reading to fluctuate. Such as wash your face with Water. Take a Vitamin. Or even the way you step up on the scale. Generally I use a scale that provides readings in 0.2 pound increments. It is repeatable. If it is not repeatable then get rid of it and get a better one. Also check your batteries if its electronic.

http://www.amazon.com/My-Weigh-XL-550-Talking-Bathroom/dp/B0014ZQH84 I've been using this one for over a year and it has always been extremely accurate. Plus, you can set it to tell you your weight out loud, which is fun. When it turns on and says "hello!" I said hi back to it. XD But yeah, very accurate, very durable.

Water retention? Especially after eating junk, I can add 5 lbs. when eating 1 lb. of crap.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
