Some good answers in this thread but my answer would be "Who cares?"
Why are you focused on your weight? Do you really care what it says when you look down at a reading on a device you're standing on?
What are you really trying to acomplish? My guess is since you're at a reasonable weight now your blood pressure and health markers are probably fine. Most likely what you're trying to accomplish is to look better clothed and naked.
If I'm right - you shouldn't be worrying about what the scale says. You should be worried about adopting a diet and exercise routine that is consistant with your goals. If you just diet - you're going to look exactly how you look now, only slightly smaller. Any "problem areas" are still going to be there.
Just something to think about.
