My scale does this a little too, but its only off around .5lbs either way. I think its because my bathroom floor is very uneven. I usually just weight myself 3 times and average it out. But yeah, it shouldnt be off by THAT much. It can also do that when the batteries are dying, so give that a check too. Or, yanno, mighta just been time for a new one.
I actually binned those scales and bought new ones, which have proved to be far more consistent. I had my weight checked when I went for blood-tests recently, and the scales at the surgery gave the same result as my new ones, so I reckon they're pretty accurate. Unfortunately, it turns out that I'm even more of a lardy bastard than the old scales were saying!
