I just bought a scale this weekend,.. I am so mad because it gives me a different weight each time I step on...

Now I'm wondering how I am going to keep track of weight with this crazy scale..

I'm thinking about weighing until it gives me the same number twice,..LOL

Inaccurate Scale
 
I found recently that my scale was off also. It was off 3lb the good way, but at least it is consistant. The amount of the weight I wanted to loss didn't change, so I had to change my goal weight. Bottom line is that it doesn't really change things much.

I see lots of people have had or are having the same problem. Thanks for the support everyone. I know it's just numbers but it takes a little while to adjust.

I'd have to return that one! Is your floor level? I know in one house I lived in depending on where in the bathroom the scale was it would be 1-2 pounds off.
