   Many scales show some hysteresis, and this result is consistent with   
   that. When going up the "weight" will be high during acceleration and   
   then go back to normal, giving a slightly high result.  When going down   
   the "weight" will be low and then go back to normal, giving a slightly   
   low result.   
      
   You also don't state what precision and uncertainty your scale gives.   
   Did you make these measurements many times?  Do you know how   
   consistently you get exactly these results?  The significance of your   
   measurements depends critically on those properties of your scale.
