HaHa! I lost 5.5 pounds in 5 minutes!!

Ok not really. I just found out the scale I've been using at work is off by 5 1/2 pounds. How do I know? Because 3 other scales say I'm 231 and the one I've been using at work says 236.5. I think that's really uncool. They should have a warning sign on that thing. If I had been using a different scale and then stepped on that one, that would be really depressing.

I say take the 5 pound loss and smile! ;)

Stick a big post it note on it that says, "LIAR!!!!" when no one is looking.

LOL ;)

If I learned I was 5 lbs lighter then I thought, I would not consider it uncool - how very very cool!

Same kind of thing happened to me but it was a couple of months ago. I was using a spring scale and it was never at zero. It would start at 3-5 pounds I never realized it until one morning. Long story short, later that night I bought a digital scale which works a lot better.
