The great scale conspiracy

The last few weeks have not been great for exercise. With only about three to four trips to the gym in the last three weeks, the thought of weight loss was far from my head.

Don’t get me wrong, I have been eating well. I say well, because I have had my fair share of beer and other fine adult beverages in the last few weeks, but overall, I would say my diet was well within the “WeightWatchers” guidelines for my size and age.

I stayed away from the scale intentionally as I didn’t like being stuck at the 230 mark. So when I hopped on the scale last week, I was sure the scale was not reading correctly. It showed I had lost five more pounds. This could not be right!

Of course it didn’t help that moving the scale from one side of the bathroom to the other resulted in a difference of about three pounds at times. Time to get a new scale of course.

Thinking that the scale I was using was defective, I decided it was necessary to use another scale. That scale as well showed a weight loss of four pounds. The scales are conspiring.

Knowing that I can know trust the scale at home, I will continue on my quest to hit 200 pounds, but I will be cautious of the readings I get from my scale.
