Quick question. I have used 3 different scales. And there is a 10 pound difference within the three. The worst obe it's the home scale. And the best one is at the gym. The slide scale.

    Just pick one scale and stick to it -- will drive yourself crazy if you compare the numbers on different scales.

    Test / calibrate the one at the gym with weights and you will then know if it's accurate.

    Ditto at home if you have weights at home.
