Weight Scales!

Here's my question. What type of scale do you use to weigh yourself? I used a digital scale & then got on a needle scale and both have different numbers. Now I'm puzzled on which one is more accurate and which should I go off.

Has anyone else experienced this before?

every scale i get on say a different weight. I give up and just use the same ones all the time and watch that one move down. some put a stone on me some take off but the ones I use are nearest to docs ones. Not even money can get you good ones as my dad has good digital ones and they are out to. So annoying. I have mechanical ones.

most scales will not read exactly the same. sometimes it is the floor, sometimes the calibration needs to be adjusted. i have found that my wii fit seems to consistently match other scales more than my needle scale, however, i try to weigh myself on many to get an idea of the accuracy of the scales i have at home. so, if you know people (or if your gym) has a scale, jump on as many as you can to see which of your scales is closer to all the rest. then just consistently weigh yourself with that one. hope that helps!

I have a digital scale and I put two 5 lbs weights on it and it says 10 lbs so I know it is correct. Sometimes is will say less than 10 lbs so I move it then it says 10 lbs.
