Question about my scale

I have a taylor as well and from time to time it will do that. I will weigh myself a few times til I see the same number a few times and go w that one. It will do that twice to me where it will give like a 20lb diff and I'm like yeah I wish I was that weight.

I have a weight watchers scale, and it does the same thing. It is also on a flat surface in the bathroom. I figure it is because the scale is large, and therefore subject to more variation because you can more easily shift your weight around, whereas when you have a smaller scale, there is only enough room for you stand one way, and therefore you have a more constant weight. In addition, that scale has me weighing 5 pounds less than on my Wii fit scale. That's on carpet, though, so I'm thinking even if there can be so many different weights on the weight watcher's scale, it is probably more accurate because it's on a hard surface. The scale at the doctor's office is somewhere in between the two scales!!!! Arrgh. I think the important thing is that you weigh yourself the same way each day -- stand tall, stand as you would normally, keep track of that number, and hopefully it continues to go downward. That's what I'm going to do . . .
