Hmmm, hate to disappoint you, but different scales are calibrated differently. Do you still have the old scale? If so, compare the readings. If not, I'd ignore the 5 lb. loss between scales until you can verify your weight at a gym or doctor's office where they use a mechanical scale. I'd trust the three pounds loss on the new scale and hope its not water. Good job!!

check your scale by using 10 pound weights. I have to do it to mine all the time just to make sure it is right. Congratulations!!

if you don't have weights you could always use a pound of flour or sugar to weigh and check the scale.
