Today I had my mandatory biometric screening for insurance purposes at work, so to prepare myself, I weighed myself at home when I got up at 5. According to my scale, which I've always used and from which all of my numbers come from, I was 294.2 lbs. Totally expected, I did have a piece of carrot cake w/cream cheese frosting last night, so there was no shock whatsoever.

Fast forward 2 1/2 hours and I'm getting weighed at the screening. Off come my shoes, she tells me to step on, and I wait...and wait...and wait. Then the number that pops up says 284.2 lbs. I looked at her and said, "That can't be right." She said, "Is that good?" I said, "No, can we do it again?" So we go through it again, and this time the number says 285.6 lbs. I looked at her and said, "You don't understand, I weighed myself at 5 o'clock this morning and I was 294 lbs. This can't be right." She assured me that everybody that had come through so far had seen their expected numbers on the scale. I called my husband (he'd been through the screening the day before, with the same people and the same equipment, so he knew what his weight was with his work clothes on) and asked him to go weigh himself on our scale. He did, and he had the same exact number they gave him yesterday.

Now how in the heck can the same two scales give us such distorted numbers? My number is exactly 10 lbs off, but his is exactly the same? And now, do I enter the number I got from my screening this morning as my new weight? Or do I continue to go with the numbers I've been getting from the scale at home all along? As much as I'd love to put in that new number, I'm betting I don't since it was only a one time use.
