Maybe I COULD Get Away With Wearing Slippers on the Scale

I've taken to weighing myself at least once a week. As a rule, I don't wear shoes on the scale as, from my understanding, they tend to add to the number on the scale. Up until now, I wouldn't take any chances with wearing my ballet flats slippers on it, either.

Just a few minutes ago, I checked to see if the slippers would affect the reading on the scale. First, I weighed myself in slippers. Then, I weighed myself in stocking feet. The reading for both was 134.5. (After I had taken off a sweatshirt I had been wearing, I did the same test. The readings for both times was134.0.)

In closing, I probably could step onto a scale in lightweight slippers and it won't hurt my scale readings.
