Hii...anyone from Ireland/UK will have scales that usually go with stone...

so I would be 13.4 & 3/4 stone can I just double check with the whole of MFP that that is = to 186.75lb?

Correct!? Its 13 by 14 plus 4 and 3quatres?

haha google converter tottally gave me wrong numbers :( haha

Sorry for the maths question :)

Thanks :)

    Another thing I first weighed myself and got 13.2 could not believe it, so I tried again and got 13.2!
    Then 15 mins did it again to show my mam cos I was delighted and got 13.4 and later that day got 13.4

    and the other day 13.4 :S and today 13.3 ughhhhhhhhhh?

    Weight will fluctuate by a few pounds daily which is exactly why you should not weight in every day, so please do not be scale obsessed it pains me to see people do that. Now if you are just starting out get measurements and a before pic. Its a reference to go back to when you are feeling discourage, trust me you will thank me if you do this now. The scale does not tell you the true story of fat loss which is what you want to target here. So my advice is to learn as much as you can about proper nutrition, feeding the body and do not fall into that trap of thinking that eating like a mouse and training like an olympic athlete will mean fat loss.
