Stupid inaccurate scale

 I got on the scale this morning and almost screamed with joy because the scale said 184. Thats 5 lbs down. I thought it was too good to be true. The stupid scale went back to 189. UGH. I shouldn't have gotten back on!

I have had that happen to me. That's why when I weigh, I weigh first in my normal spot and then twice more in other areas on my floor. That way I know the weight is correct. Make sure you have good batteries in the scale. Worse case if it keeps acting up on you, spend the money and get a new scale. Glad to see that you are doing so well.
