Stupid Scale.....

[spiitze]

...Okay. First topic that I made! Whoo! xd

Anyways.... So thi8s morning I weigher myself....the exact same way that I always do, right after I got up... but the scale said I was 20lb lighter...and it was very strange... but then I weighed myself again after breakfast, and according to the scale, i gained 18 or so lb... neutral which is probably the weight it should've shown this morning....

Anyone know whats wrong with the scale? sweatdrop

The only thing I can think of, is Where you weighed yourself.
I've noticed that a scale gets thrown off if its on Tile in comparison to carpet, or just a concrete floor ~

linoleum... >.<  

[dangerousfish]

Agree, on the surface thing. Unless the scale is broken and giving random junk the thing that throws off any scale I've used the most is using it on different surfaces but if you always do it on linoleum that shouldn't be an issue.

One thing I known can throw it off, did you lose youe blanace while on the scale? When you rise up on your toes and back the scale will usually get confused and weigh you less.

I don't think so...I tried it a few times... It happened again this morning gonk This time it said 155 lb... I WISH T__T  

[Oshii-chan]

I'm hoping that didn't happen to me this morning... It said that I lost 10 pounds... I was told that I looked like it, too! (Before I weighed myself) I weighed myself earlier out of nuerotica, and I was about 7 pounds heavier.

Rahhh now I'm sad!!! crying  

[spiitze]

awww.. Sorry T________T  

[takocos]

This same thing happened to me once... I cried myself to sleep.

I use the 10lb weight that I work with, to measure accuracy of my scale.
Do the same? Use something 10+ lbs.  

[spiitze]

Thank you so much moonecho. I weighed 2 10lb dumbells and the scale showed them as weighing 15lbs.

Obviously theres something wrong with it sweatdrop sweatdrop

I predict that a new scale is in my future ninja  

[SilverShinku]

Yay new scale in the future 8D  

[Stars in my Pocket]

Mysterious. Haha. x)  

[spiitze]

My mum bought me a new scale today
=D

Its analog, so it shouldn't glitch like the other one.

And its also showing that I'm 5 pounds lighter! and its not me! The scale was off (it showed my dad as 5 pounds lighter too!)

So, now I only have 10 pounds left to lose! YAY!

This topic is pretty much resolved now. Thanks for the responses!
