An hour later you can get back on and it will say 205. Obviously you did not gain 5 pounds in an hour. You will never get the same reading on two different scales and at different times of the day it will say different things. The best thing to do is to get a tape measure and measure your porportions. This will take longer to see results, but it will be accurate. And you won't feel bad if the scale says you weigh a different weight. Scales are a round about estimate but are often off by a few pounds unless you go to a doctors office. I hope that helps, and don't get discuraged if the scale says you weigh a little more because you probably didn't gain that weight in the first place.
