Holly told me once to go by mine cause I use them everyday... BUT then when I go in to see him, He see's a different number then I do... So which do u use?? I changed my ticker back to his weight cause It was depressing when I went in and his number was higher than mine. Made me depressed!! do i need a new one?? lol

Hi Dawn, looks like we are neighbors...Im in Flaherty. I go by my scales because when I weigh at home, I am near naked but at Shina's office as you know you have shoes on & everything else. So why not go with the lower number...sounds better to me!

howdy neighbor!!!  SO u know his scales suck too... I was going by mine  but then when I go in there, it disgusts me to see the higher number I weigh in jeans and a teeshirt, then I weigh buck nekkid.. yes, im as obsessive as Becka....  thanks for responding.. dawn

I posted this on the Band Board as well but will put it here too and then I have to go get some housekeeping done before I go to the gym this afternoon!! Hey there Dawn,

So is Dr. Shina's scale always 5 pounds higher than yours??  If so, you need to remind yourself that you are losing the same amount of weight each time!  It's like the scales are saying the same thing but in two different languages!  If you have a dial scale you could adjust your home scale to read the same if you wanted.  Just fix it right after you come home from your next appointment.  Then threaten to cut any fingers off that fiddles with the dial!

I use my home scale since it the one I step on daily (lol....actually multiple times daiy!).  I know there's about a 2 pound difference in what Dr. Larson's scale reads and mine.  As long as it stays consistently 2 pounds difference i'm a happy camper.  this last time Dr. Larson's scale was VERY generous and even weighed my in at .2 pounds less than mine and that was WITH my clothes on!!  Next time I go in I have to remind myself of that so if it takes it back I won't get my feelings hurt!

ahhh rebecca the obsessive weigher... I cant figure out why his are so far off from mine...  I weigh in jeans and a tshirt and socks  so that I would be in the same clothes as when i got to his office and then I weigh nekkidd.. but five dang pounds?> grrrrrrr dawn
