New scale??

angela75022

I think I need a new scale... I have a digital scale, which is great, since you can set goals and it keeps track of weight lost... BUT I can get on it 3 times in a row and get 3 different weights... being a woman, I choose the best #, or the most realistic (last week it said I weigh 120... yeah right)... I'm afraid to get a new one and it says I weigh more than I think I do now, it would feel like stepping backward ya know

:ohwell:

I have the same problem with my digital scale. I get so mad because sometime I'll go up 3 - 4 pounds in a matter of minutes. So now I only allow myself to go near the scale ONCE on Monday morning. It's the first thing I do when I get up - other that go to the bathroom, of course. The number I see is the one I track. Then I hide it under the sink for a week.

I had a scale like that, I eventually kicked it to the curb, it was stressing me out too much.

My aunt as an awesome scale, always accurate, I started using that, I weigh on Mondays as well.

Prior to using her scale, I would go to Publix supermarket and use their scale, which was on point as well

Then get an analog or make sure yours is right. Throw a 5 lb dumbbell on it and if it doesn't read 5, figure out your weight according to that reading. I have a cheap analog & I was thinking it was off for some reason and turns out I just had to turn the dial so it read "0" when nothing was on it - sometimes it moves. So much simpler than the tricky digitals!!
