    You could test your scale by first weighing yourself, then weigh yourself holding something with substantial weight - you would obviously notice the weight increase. Or even try weighing a weight (if you have any around) and see if your scale is accurate. Just a couple of small things you could try. It is possible to weigh the same weight 2 weeks in a row and see results based on measurements instead, that's why it is important to track both weight and measurements. There is more than one way to track weight loss/fitness.

    if you workout its most likely because you are loosing fat and gaining muscle.

    Sure that makes sense....because you are losing inches, which is AWESOME. I try not to live by the number on the scale, but enjoy the other perks like feeling better, clothes fitting better and losing inches. I would try not weiging in for a couple weeks and then see how you do!
