Is the scale lying to me???

I'm 5'1" and I currently weight 136 or so says my scale. *sigh*

anyways I feel slimmer and I'm on my period I don't know if it's just my crazy head that is telling me I look slimmer. When I was 134 I look kinda chubbier actually.

Is the scale lying to me!!?

Unlikely....   Your weight is your weight.  It's a number, a point on the dial.  If you feel slimmer than that's good because you've clearly got plenty of confidence.  (Many very thin people 'feel fat' because they lack confidence and that's the reverse) As you lose weight you'll feel just the same about yourself but you won't have all that visceral fat interfering with your organs and clogging up your arteries...  Best of all worlds.  

If you're on your period, it's entirely possible that you're bloated. Personally, I gain 2-4 pounds during that time of the month!

The only thing to do is to wait and see if the weight comes off after your period ends. Try drinking a lot of water, too.

Good luck!

Have you been lifting weights? I weigh about 135lbs now and I'm 5'6", and I weighed the same exact weight about a year ago. However, I look slimmer at 135lbs now than I did a year ago because I've been lifting weights. My body is a lot more toned now than a year ago. 

So yeah, it is possible to look slimmer while weighing more if you've gained muscle. Muscle is denser than fat, so you could actually look smaller :) this is good!!!

I agree with jcl76. You might just be gaining muscle. Invest in a measuring tape and measure yourself periodically. Then you can be sure that you are actually slimmer.

Have to agree with linaroce here - I always gain around that time.  It drops back off pretty quickly.  You can also bloat if you had a lot of sodium recently.  Or it could be muscle gain, or some kind of random fluctuation from a hundred different things.  Your scale's not lying, but it can't tell you the whole story, either, and you can easily weigh a few pounds more one day than you did another day for no apparent reason.

Give it a few days and see what happens.  I'm sure it will even out. Watch the trend line instead of worrying about what the scale said that day.  You might want to start tracking your measurements, too.  If you're lifting and gaining muscle, that would be a more accurate indication of progress.
