discrepancy
-
They say a poor workman blames his tools. Does the same apply to weight loss? I was using one set of scales, which I thought were fairly reliable. I then did some stuff on the Wii Fit and it gave me a measurement that varied by 9 kilos. Then I remembered mum had another set of scales in the bathroom so I tried them, and they were somewhere in between the other two measurements. We don’t have anything we reliably know the weight of to test the scales with but man...you’d expect a discrepancy of a kilo or so maybe, but 9 kilos?!
All I know is it would have looked a lot better if I’d started my measurements using the Wii Fit.

what's it all about?
I'm a Christian. I get absorbed in lots of different pursuits, and my attention frequently gets snagged on whatever latest shiny thing pops into my view. I write, I sing, I design, I read, I edit, I make things, I play WoW, I play piano, I try and record music. And I struggle with depression. This blog is about all these things. And probably other things as well.

sometimes it makes a difference if the scales are on carpet or on hard floor. I think they weigh you a lot lighter on carpet.
