    Digital scales are more accurate, the old school scales are really inconsistent

    If you are able to, go to your doctor's office and get weighed there. Then see which one is closest.

    Ok, so I weighed myself on a digital scale, and a regular scale. They both read differently and I have no idea which is truley more reliable. I was told digital but I have also heard those are not reliable at all.. One says the same weight.. one says almost two lbs less!
    It doesn't matter which one is accurate all that matters is you use the same one and weigh yourself in the same place at the the same time. Your weight will always fluctuate from different scales and your own body weight will vary pounds during the day. Just monitor the trend

    Use the same scale. A 2 pound difference is not worth worrying about.
