I have noticed before that when I weight myself at home I get one result and if I am out on the same day and weight myself in the doctors office, I get a completely different result. I asked my Dr why this happens as the scales I have at home is electric. She told me ( Your house is on a hill and so the height difference can make a difference to the result.
So now when I stand on the scales I never know if it is right or not.
Take you scales in to the clinic and calibrate them together. Cheaper electronic ones can be a bit iffy - the old fashioned balances are accurate. Its more important to focus on your continued loss and increasing health rather than just the numbers. The fact that you've got two readings which are confusing shouldn't put you off or make you feel disappointed. You've still done well and you've still improved your health!
