thanks for all the advice - its really appreciated i have decided to take todays weight and have recorded a loss of 2.3lbs - which is more reasonable than a loss of 6.5lbs in 2 days my scales are digital - cost over £50 at the time - they are weight watchers scales they are kept flat in a spare kitchen cupboard and i weigh…
