FUNNY story: This morning, I realized that my weight was NOT stalling nor did I gained weight - thank God! It was my smart scale playing a trick on me bc it was low in battery 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 so it was giving me the wrong reading. After I changed the battery, I've hit my first goal of 140lbs. I weight 138lbs now. I've also started IF again, so overall I've lost almost 20lbs. 🎉 Remember to check your smart scale batteries!!

To celebrate & reward myself, I went pep shopping lol I'm adding MOTS-C, NAD+, KLOW, and DSIP to the mix. Can't wait for all to arrive!!

I just changed mines this morning, my wife said it wasn't working. Dried batter juice everywhere. Had to clean it out and replace the batteries. Congrats on the weight loss.

So, all I have to do is change the batteries and I’ll reach my goal? Sweet. I’m on Amazon right now buying some new battaries 😂.

All kidding aside, how did you know that the scale was malfunctioning? I’m ready to throw my scale out the window since it provides different weights even at the same time. Like I weigh myself and then get off the scale and weigh myself again and it’s a different #. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Make sure to get the Energizer brand so it'll give you energy throughout the day - LOL I wish it was that easy.

With my continued pep routine-two weeks ago, I started to eat healthier/cleaner and get back to my keto and IF routine, started a light workout bc I injured my ankle a couple month ago and recently felt better, but mostly it's bc I wanted to reach my goal weight. Make sure I get at least 6hrs of sleep, since then I've been feeling lighter and clothes felt looser than usual, but my scale was telling me otherwise. I checked my smart scale app and it shows battery was low, so I changed it and voila!!

I think when your scale is telling you different numbers immediately, it's definitely time to get a new one. Also make sure that your scale is on a flat surface & on the same location when weighing yourself, sometimes the slightest uneven of your floor can mess up the reading. Always scale yourself first thing in the morning. I hope this helps and good luck to you on your journey!

Ughhh I thought mine was the only one! I can get on three times minutes apart and get three very different readings. I now get on 5 or six times and whatever weight has the most hits is what I go with 🤷‍♀️

Exactly what I'm going through. Never the same even within minutes. 😡

Comforting to know it's not only me, but sorry you have the same.... I'm going to look into the scale that @BNLFL mentioned.

I have the opposite issue, I can get on same time every morning for a week solid and it will give me exact same weight to the ounce EVERY time, which is of course physically impossible. Did all the algorithm resets, recalibrations, battery thing. Same to the ounce. It taunts me.

Yeah, that makes no sense either. From day-to-day there has to be weight flucuations. What the heck is up with these scales 🤣.

This is part of the reason I haven’t really kept good track of my weight. I don’t have one of those fancy graphs that folks are able to post. It’s just too variable and I think of my scale as more of an estimate than an accruate measure.
 
Grogu said:
Thanks! Is it accruate, like when you get on it measures the same thing multiple time?

I like it, and I can get off 3-4 times and back on. Same reading. According to a bunch of people, pretty damn close to full body scans. I like tracking my BMI and Fat%. It goes down a little every time.

Read the instructions. To turn it on you just put some weight on it. Make sure you stay on it till the small colored lights stop flashing to get the body scan readings.

Thanks for the heads up! I think this will one of those times that I actually read the instructions. I’m usually one of those guys that rip things out of the box and don’t read a thing 😂.
