Redball:
Mine read to .2 pound. I haven't checked them against my physician's scale in a while, but I hope they're reasonably accurate for total weight and for changes. The readings, at least, are repeatable. As for my physician's scales, they don't care if I'm wearing street shoes, sandals or flipflops. I think they offer to hold my parka in cold weather.

Redball:
Finished week 3, but I think my app left out a walk-run repetition. I'm sure I'll make up for it next week.

Barmymoo:
Mine are digital scales with one decimal point, which is enough for me.

Ugh. I did a lot of walking today, but I also ate a lot of rubbish. Amazingly, once I've eaten what I've got planned for dinner I'll only be 66 calories over my target, but the amount of processed sugar I ate made me feel very ill (and ensured that a lot of those excess calories came back out again not long after, sorry if TMI).

I think being on a "diet" aka eating sensibly according to daily recommended limits has made my body not tolerate junk food. I only had 50g of toffee popcorn, about 20g of white chocolate and probably 20g of milk chocolate, and I feel like hell. So much for a delicious treat with my film!

Redball:
TMI? Not to worry. This forum, maybe this thread, passed that particular point weeks ago. Passed? Unintended.

I think eating sensibly gives you some intolerance for junk food and for too much food. If I pig out once, on one day, it may not show up on scales at all, or not for more than a day. If I repeat for several days, it usually will. But I was lucky with the last long weekend's pigging out: I'm back to dropping, and below where I was a week ago.

lepetitfromage:
I wish I had that problem with junk food!! My body is "rejecting" all the good food I've been eating. I've had nothing but whole grains and veggies all day today and my stomach is at war with me.

In other news, TMI is my middle name....
