  • Different scales vary so much so I wouldn't worry about it too much.
    I even found that my scales give a different number depending on where I put them (carpet/tiles).
    If your clothes are baggier then you've definitely made good progress!
  • you have lost weight because your clothes are baggier, :)
    there's no doubt about it, ignore the number on your scales, it means nothing :) well done x

    I am in the same situation, my scales broke, I bought new ones - they can read totally different (up to a stone's difference) where ever I put them - and that is stepping on, straight off and back on again

    It is very frustrating especially as i am trying very hard - and don't belive the mirror (and forgot to measure myself)
