    One scale is off. Or they both are. It does not matter, you are here for the long term results. Don't let the scale rule you.

    This.

    Most household scales are inaccurate. Just be sure to stick to using the same one so you can see if your weight is trending up or down.

    Just stick to one scales to compare. Mine at home always shows 2kgs more than the one at the gym.

    The mirror will tell me once I lost enough weight... :-)

    Reset your weight to the new scale you bought, and the weigh on that going forward :-)

    Weighing tips:

    - Use the same scales all the time
    - Weigh at the same time of day
    - Weigh wearing the same clothes
    - Weigh on the same spot of the floor - a scale that doesn't sit exactly right will lead to differing results.

    If you go against any of these then you are merely comparing apples with oranges and that doesn't work ;)

    Ignore the scale, throw them out. Go by what you see in the mirror or your measurements.... That's the truth :smile:
