So I have been on MFP for a while but haven't really been doing like I should. I just got Jillian Micheal's 30 Day Shred and started this morning; however, I really want to weigh myself before I get too far into it. My scale is broken... I got on and it weighed me about ten pounds less than what I know my weight should be around. Then to see what was going on I got on agian. Well in the course of two minutes, according to my scale, I had lost seven pounds! If only... :)

I was wondering what is a really good scale to weigh with that will last, and how do you know how many calories you burn with the 30DS?

    Is it a digital scale?

    If so youll need to recalibrate it.

    Also make sure its completely flat!

    It's digital. I keep it in the bathroom; I figure the steam from the shower might have messed it up.

    My house settled last year a little and as a result, my tile in the bathroom wasnt flat!
    I was getting 5lb differences.
    I moved the scale to another room.
