Scale stupidity.

Alright, the issue I'm having is I stepped on the scale today and I was 10 lbs up from last weigh in. What the heck? I'm an old hand at this, lost 58 pounds so far and have been on here since feb. Always have had a loss since that first week. I know there are lots of reasons for the scale to read high. But I've never seen 10 lbs over my low weight before. Logically speaking, I couldn't have consumed even 5 lbs worth of calories in the last four days. Still that number just sucks.

Have any of you had a Wtf scale jump?

    Ate anything extra salty? If it's water retention it's likely caused by a sodium spike.

    My scale is a moron and if I don't put it on the right spot in the bathroom it gives me really weird numbers sometimes.
