What scales do you have? I find the digital Salter ones to be accurate

Have you got a link? I have digital salter which were great, but now they give a different reading every time.

It's the floor they're on which causes this, not the scales themselves.

I know, but I've moved them everywhere now, even on my usual weigh in zones, and they're different every time I step on.

So are mine.
It's maddening, isn't it.

I think it's due to my floors. The scales were expensive.

I’ll try to find a link, I’ve had them ages.

What sort of floor are you weighing on btw? Lino can cause inaccurate readings.

Hard tiled floor.

I went through something similar a few months ago. I’d been using a cheap bathroom scale, and the numbers just didn’t seem right. A friend recommended Industry Scales from Accurate World, and honestly, it was a game-changer. I borrowed one to double-check my weight, and it turned out my old scale was way off. It was humbling but also helpful to know the real number so I could start making changes. If you’re feeling unsure about your scale, maybe it’s worth checking out something more reliable like that.
