Lucky for you missaec. you're one of the few fortunate ones. What's the brand name on your scale and what's the maximum weight? I expect that for most scales and most people under 250 a regular bathroom scale might be more reliable than for those of us at the higher end of 200 - 300s. Those regular scales are spring scales and after a short while the spring loses some of its elasticity and weight results become unstable and unreliable.

At my house I have 3 of those and both my kids get the same weight on them as on my Tanita. With me, the variations range from 12 to 28 lbs.

But, I'm glad for you and please keep up the good weight loss work.
