Default scales

I've been torturing myself with the scale for two weeks now. My scale changes wieght from minute to minute, so I have been suspicious about its accuracy all along.

If you go to amazon or an online retailer that offers user reviews, these scales (especially in the lower price range) have MANY complaints about innacuracy. There are probably at least ten reviews on amazon (for different brands) where people went to the doctor's office and got weighed and found out there was a 5-10 pound difference from thier home scale.

I can step on my scale...and then 1 minute later get on it again and weigh something different. I weighed myself yesterday morning and was down to 119. Got on it in the afternoon and was up to 125. Got on it this morning and it was 122 - couldnt stand it so I got on it again and its 119 again.

I think I outta throw mine out too....its torturing me!
