Effing scales!

[Caroline101061]

Well, Ive bought a new pair of scales and Ive lost 5lbs in the last week - as opposed to putting on 2lbs then losing 1lb then putting 2lbs back on. Think my hysteria last week was digitally exacerbated not human error!

Phew - back on track - 8 stone 8lbs gone! Bleedin' marvelous!

The moral of this story is dont panic and dont use digital scales - not to be relied on.

lol hi Caroline

dont get me started on scales lol.

I weighed myself for the first time on the ones in boots on friday evening, they said I had only lost 1.5lbs in 10 days since I was last weighed at the hospital. There are other things like extended totm to take into account and the fact that it is the first time I have used their scales to weigh myself so there may be descrepencies but none the less I have been following really strict dietery advice and am only about 5 weeks post op.

I dont want to weigh myself at home really, would rather do it fortnightly at boots but if their scales are unreliable I will have to rethink this.

Well done with your weightloss so far Xx

You can have my old ones if you want - depending on where in the flat you weigh yourself, you can be 8lbs lighter!

OMG Ime now wondering if my scales are being horrid to me, the battery is running a bit low and this week Ive only lost 1lb but having said that my usual black pencil skirt that I adore now looks like a bag of sh*te on me so perhaps, its those bloody scales the lil minxes. Gail.x
