Sad times, I changed the battery in my scales and it's found the missing 30lbs
At least I know now. I've left them out, so hopefully I can keep them in the same place and be consistent! However, the good news is despite my weeks of not eating well, I hadn't put on weight.

KKI seem to be quite good at maintaining my weight, and terrible at reducing it!

I am exactly the same jwil. Seem to sit within the same weight give or take 3 or 4 pounds.

I find that frustrating too. I've been 1lb above the next stone down for weeks now and I think psychologically it would be really helpful to just lose that lb and be down a bracket but its not shifting. My scales seem to be accurate and it doesn't matter which kind of floor surface I have them on.
Strangely, my clothes are definitely looser but thats not reflected on the scales 🤔🤔🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️[not complaining re looser clothes btw]2
