Scales....... what's yours?



Recommended Posts

So I have decided I need a new scale. I went out and bought a HomeMedics digital scale today and got on it. I was SHOCKED! It read the same as the scale I've been using---the one that I swear up and down is about 10lbs off.

At work we use a digital scale and it consistently weighs me 10lbs heavier than I do at home. I am SO confused! I dont know which scale to believe. I havent been to weigh in at the surgeon's office in over 4 weeks so that scale is out. I guess I will try to get in there this week just to see but its driving me crazy trying to figure how much I actually weigh

:blushing:

Take something that has a known weight - like a 5 pound bag of sugar or something. Put it on your new scale. If it reads correctly, it is right.

I bought two digital scales and get 2 different weights! (weight watchers and biggest loser) Some times I can get on and off and get a new weight! It drives me nuts! I relay on the old fashion one at the gym which consistently shows a weight loss. Physiologically though since I weigh there later in the day it shows a higher number. I would love to get an accurate number first thing in the morning. Oh and I tried weighing my hand weight and sometimes it is accurate and sometimes it isn't. If anyone has a good scale I would be interested too.
