Aggravated with my scale today, i first stepped on it said 266. And then i reweighed myself like 8 more times because it keeps changing, 265.4, 264.4, 265.8, 264.6 So I'm wondering is this because its a digital scale? Should i reinvest in a dial scale? I really would like an accurate reading.

    mine does the same thing and it makes me nuts. i'm in the market for a new scale, but i'm not sure what kind to buy.

    Mine is digital, and I keep weighing myself until I have the same number 3 times. Then I quit. :) I still like it better than the dial version, because that one's so much harder to read, and doesn't get as accurate info, like if you lost .4 pounds. And when you're losing slowly (and healthily) knowing about those tenths of pounds can make a difference!

    my dial scale does the same thing. I only weigh in the morning, before eating, with nothing on. & it still varies!!
