Our old scale was hobbling, literally...it had only 3 legs so you had to precariously balance yourself to get a good reading. 70+days into this, I found a new scale and it arrived yesterday.

I am so far very impressed with it EXCEPT...I weighed 3 pounds less than on my old scale and so did hubby. I create mini goals for myself, so my first minigoal is being in one-derland again. I am 4.4 lbs away from that goal and that is a very big hurdle for me. However, on the new scale, I was almost there. Yikes.

I am excited to use the new scale and know it is about pounds lost, not the number. But, I think I am going to keep using the old scale until I see 199.0 and then transition over. Maybe it will give me some positive momentum.

Thoughts? Which would you say is the accurate weight? The new one or the 3 legged one?

Thanks!

    I wouldn't worry too much about which one is "accurate" as long as you're being consistent on which one you use. Maybe you should restart your ticker and measurements when you transition over to the new one?
