    Some digital scales remember their last weight and show it again if the new one is close - it makes them "appear" to be more accurate. The ones we had at work did this, which caused issues when two people were of similar weights. There are 2 "easy" ways around this - get someone else to stand on the scales in between, stand on them while holding a heavy object (handbag, pile of laundry...) and one harder one is to stand on the scales with one foot on the floor taking half your weight (it's tricky, you've got to have good balance or your weight wont stabilise)

    The reason you guys are not seeing what you expect on the scale is because its tricking you and is not as accurate as you think.
    It will fake readings to make them more consistent

    I use this scale and its very accurate, check the reviews

    i actually gained after pooping once. i figured it was muscle that i devloped. it was a tough poop.

    Awesome.

    Dropping kids off at the pool can be strenuous.

    Most digital scales have a memory..if u do 2 weighins close together it will just show the first reading again. I trick it by picking up my vanity mirror or my toddler and weighing again.

    Heeheehee, I do it, too, just cause I get a kick out of it. And, later in the day, if someone tells me I'm full of it, I can tell them how much less I am now than that morning!!! I'm a huge dork, I know!

    I do this almost every time, just because I have a sick sense of curiosity and, well, potty humor is funny, even when it's private and I don't get to share it with anyone.
