Digital scale giving different readings

NeVeR

I stood on the scales and it reads 105kg I try it seconds later and it's 105.3 then 105.5 and then 105.6 I asked my girlfriend to test it and 3 times in a row hers was the same what's going on ?

It's just gravity changing. It's not a consistent force. Nothing to worry about. You can expect about a 0.7kg margin of error at any point in the day.

What time was it at outta interest?

This last night . All done within 5 minutes of each other, I weighed myself this morning and I'm 104.5

You would expect a change in the morning compared to night because at night your body would still have food in it from the day whereas in the morning your stomach would be more or less empty I would think.

And its probably just gravity, your weight will fluctuate gently all the time.

You're talking about a 0.3% variation here. Zero point three percent.

I wouldn't use that scales to measure out cocaine, but as far as measuring your weight, it's grand.
