I am a very fat 20 stone woman with medical issues.

Currently following a very strict low cal medical eating plan under dietician for the past 9 days, another 13 days to go :(

The digital bathroom scales which are still working correctly for my DH, tells me I have dropped 40 pounds over the last 9 days !

That can't be right, can it ?

I do minimum of 5 miles walking a day (11, 000 steps via Fitbit), 15 minutes of body weight with trx straps exercise x 3 a week and occasional swim at the weekend with my family.

Is this broken scales, water loss or a completed anomoly and I will be much heavier again tomorrow.

Just for completeness. I always use same scales on same point of the floor, when I wake up in the morning. After using toilet but before I step into the shower and naked !

Of course I would be delighted if it was a real loss but logically it just can't be, can it ?

Evening all. And well done on your weight loss, OP!

We just wanted to stop by as we've had a few reports of grammar policing on this thread. We know it's not the worst crime in the world, and the OP took it in the spirit it was presumably intended but in general we do think it's a bit mean to point out others' mistakes and can easily derail a thread. If you wouldn't mind just quietly seething to yourselves in future, we'd appreciate it. Wink

We do have Pedants' Corner over here, though, where anyone who likes a heated discussion about apostrophes will find lots of like-minded and pleasant pedants.

Thanks for reading.
