I'm stressed about my weight and this scale.

I bought scale, and I had to smuggle it into my moms car, and then into my house without her knowing. She would go beserk if she found out I bought one, just because she thinks I don't need one, she's just weird about that.I would just like a way to track my healthy weight loss!

So I bought this scale with my own money, and I take it home without my mom seeing it. And then I find it didn't come with an instruction booklet! It's a weight watchers body fat eletrionic scale, ww70. When I step on it says my weight in pounds is something like 55.6 Now, I don't even think thats my weight, maybe it's body fat? I couldn't figure it out and I'm really frusterated. I can't take it back because then my mom would definatly see it and find out, because it's quite large. The scale was expensive and I don't know what to do! Does anyone have the same one that could help me?

This is all a big mess and I'm really stressed about it. I just wanted a simple scale to track my weight, but Now I'm out 40 dollars with a scale that I can't figure out.

It sounds like it's weighing you in KGs, not lbs.  I'm not sure how to set it to lbs, but you can convert them.  Search google, I'm sure you can find a conversion calculator.

Well, on the back of the scale there's a switch to set it from KGS to lbs. and i switched it to lbs, and it still reads that :/

Um keep it set to LBs, then take the batteries out, then put them back in. =)

That's the best idea I can come up with XD

55.6 can't be body fat percentage, that's insane! why don't u try testing with objects, like a 4L milk jug?

Well, i'm just trying to get it to show my weight. thanks for the advice :]

Try this, it might help:

Its definetly in kg take your 55.6x2.2=122.32lbs
