Stupid freaking scales

So I'm beginning to get frustrated. Every scale I've been on lately gives me a different number that varies by 10 pounds each time. I'm really scared about going to the doctor tomorrow because what if I'm not as far into my weightloss as I thought? :( Nervous

    Weight yourself using the same scale placed on the same spot at the same hour every day/week/month, whenever you do it. Scales can really mess with your mind.

    This response is kind of after the fact, but you can check the scale you use by weighing an unopened bag of flour or something similar. So if a 5-pound bag of flour doesn't come up as 5 on the scale, then the scale is not accurate.

    Scales will weigh different sometimes so don't compare your home scale to your mom's scale or the one in your doctor's office. The one you weigh on at the doctor's will compare to any previous weight you had taken there so it should still be accurate to that reading.
