I came across an article that does a great job of explaining why the scale may fluctuate from day to day. Everyone who watches the scale should read this!

Excellent article and very timely. One of my patients has a digital scale and I just can't stay off it. Yesterday it was down 2 and today it was up 3. Makes me crazy but I'm hooked. Julie

Thanks twodog ... been trying to stay away from the damn thing anyway ... especially if I weigh in the morning and I'm up a few pounds it just ruins my day ... not worth it.

I have a digital Tanita body fat scale with athletic mode (if you exercise more than 10 hrs per week the regular body fat scale doesn't accurately measure lean body mass) and I usually only weigh every two weeks !!!

So, that's why my scale said I was +1lb. this morning when I stepped on it. I depressed all day!
Thanks for the info.

I step on my scale once every 2 weeks I used to use it ALL the time, but would get really BUMMED, and I also avoid it around my period too.....


That was good reading !!
