I had a surprise a week ago. The bathroom scale had said I was losing weight. Well, I eat healthy.
It said I went from 170 to
I was thrilled!
But then it said I went to
And I knew THAT wasn't right. Even replacing the batteries didn't change it though.
And then a couple days later, it was 173 again. That's right. I weighed myself on the vet dog scale. and then on the home scale. It agreed. Mine is inconsistent. I need a new scale...
To the tune of Huey Lewis and the News "I Want a New drug"
"I need a new scale,
One that weighs like it should.
One that doesnt make me feel too bad
One that doesn't make me feel too good...
I wanna a new scale,
That tells me the truth.
So I don't get too happified,
So I don't feel fat or thin..."
LOL!

I'm afraid that I don't know that song, so I couldn't sing along.
Weird that a scale should break though, don't you think?

I have found a good one. I found it about 19 years ago. It is true to the ounce. SO rare. It's a step on one too. Once this one turns up it's toes, it'll be Katy bar the for because NOTHING is made well any more.
Megan - It's digital. Digital things get weird sometimes! This same thing happened a year ago, which is why I was suspicious. I have gotten down to 168 lbs before because sometimes I get busy and don't real eat much. But when it said 161 in a week, I knew it was messed up.
Katie and Mom - I'm glad you found a good scale. For myself, any close measurement is fine. I have the digital one that measures in .2 lb (3.4 oz) increments and it has a TARE function. That lets me weigh myself, wait for it to go to 0, and then weigh the cats by holding them with me on the scale.
