    That’s probably about the best? If it was higher you would either have to disbelieve it or feel sad - if it was lower you wouldn’t trust it. Being kind of the same probably is the best for your peace of mind???

    Absolutely, I concur - when I replaced my scale last year, these are exactly the mental gymnastics I engaged in...

    Congrats on the new scale!

    Honestly I’m over getting too emotional about the scale. It is what it is. Move on.

    (((hug)))

    :kissing_heart:

    (I use the "BC" scale which has a slightly higher number than the "AB" scale!)

    I'm not emotional about it, but it's irritating to be 1.6lbs heavier than 10 days ago when I eat 700ish calories/day.

    Don’t you just hate that? Especially when you’re doing everything right? Bodies are weird!

    It's just so bizarre and defies thermodynamics, lol. It'll show up eventually. I'm in day 1 of 5 of no weighing, since I got off at work this morning and we packed up to head to the beach for the long weekend :smiley:

    Have fun!

    I used to have a week that went up irrespective of eating... and a 30 day pattern. My fav weigh-in strategy was monthly on the woosh, provided i had not spent days feasting ;)

    Personal safety increases by hiding oneself during certain times of the month! Head in the sand one-oh-one! 😎
