Anyone else have a scale issue that the will read different numbers between 2lbs everymemebr I step on it. Kinda frustrating not sure if it's my scale or not. I changed the batterie.

    Sounds like it might be picky about where exactly you're placing your feet. Or maybe your floor is slightly unlevel. My advice, step once, then walk away. Just walk away! Or buy a new scale :wink:

    follow your food plan weigh once a day if you must log once a week... scale hopping is a dangerous habit.. good luck

    Yeah. I log my weight once a week but scale in once a day. Just notice my scale will say 253.2 then I jump off then step on again and read 255.3. Just find it frustrating. It's on a level floor.

    To a degree, most all digital scales are inaccurate. I think I remember reading that a 1% margin of error is not uncommon. Have you tried checking the calibration of your scale with a known weight like a dumb bell, kettlebell, gallon of water, etc?
