I'm definitely torn. For the past few years, I have been using the same scale. It was just a cheap scale I bought at Bed, Bath & Beyond, way before I even started losing weight. Well the issue is that to turn on, you have to literally kick it. Like stomp your foot down hard on it to get it to turn on. It's at the point where I can never trust the first time I step on it, I usually have to weight myself 3-4 times to get an accurate reading. It's pretty misleading when I step on the scale and it says I'm 5 pounds lighter than I actually am. Well yesterday I went to the gym and checked myself on my scale there. It said I was 145.5 which would be a new all time low so far! When I got home, I weighed myself on my scale and it said I was 147. Which very well could be the case because I feel like I usually weigh a little bit more after a workout. I'm just wary to use the gym scale as an actual weigh in because I don't typically use it. I almost want to switch over and do all my weigh ins on the gym scale because its an actual legit scale and it doesn't require being beat up to turn on. I just hate bouncing between scales, and if I only use the gym scale, I wouldn't ever be able to weigh myself in the morning, which is when I usually get my new lows. Decisions, decisions!

I retain quite a bit of water in my muscles when working out, so I think it's definitely true that you would weigh more afterwards as well. I think women tend to hold more water than men anyways. Uhm, I personally think the best time to weigh yourself is in the AM before eating, before working out, and after you go potty....soooooooo, if I weighed in my personal opinion, I would break down and get a new scale. I found a really nice digital one at Walgreens for like $18. I'm sure Amazon has something nice and cheap too.

Buy a new reliable scale for the home... it will be close to where you are now, and if not... SO WHAT... move on from where ever it takes you... you never know... the new scale might actually show you LOWER than the old... now wouldn't THAT be nice! :)

I agree with Miller.....I think weighing yourself later in the day or after a workout would be less consistent too depending on what you've eaten/drank and how hard you've worked out...
