I think my scale is posessed.
 
I swear there is NO way I GAINED 5 pounds. My scale is out to make me feel misserable, Im going to stick with this despite the terrible numbers I saw this morning. How the heck does this happen? Im thinking its just sodium/water retention type stuff, and I drank the day night before last (unexpected kid free evening, was wonderful!).

Anyway sorry to whine, this is just my first gain since starting this weight loss journey and Im not happy about it :mad:

TOM? Whenever I see a gain I always seem to forget that my period is just around the corner or that it just ended..a few days later, it's right back down to where it was before and everythings fine :)

What kind of scale do you have? Digital or analog?

Mid cycle, no TOM for a couple more weeks. We have an analog, but its making a bad sound, like a broken spring or something. At least that is what it sounds like to me, do these things have springs in them? DF weighed himself on it to make me happy, and it is giving him higher numbers too so I think its just the scale :)

I think my digital scale is possessed as well! It gave me 3 different readings when I was trying to find out how much my workout vest weighed. >_>

No idea if the analog has springs in 'em.. Not to worry, the 5lbs will come off within a few days or so! :)

my scale is also possessed! i'll weigh myself first thing in the morning 3 times, then right before I work out. Right before I work out I end up weighing more than I did first thing in the morning! Then I'll work out, and weight even more after that!!! All without eating or drinking anything! I'm always like, wth??

That would annoy the crap out of me haha. Maybe it's time for a new scale. I got this one and I really like it. It's really accurate, but well priced, and pretty looking!
