For future reference, put an upside down cup on top of the scale and rest the tortoise on that with feet dangling. Adjust the size of the cup as your tortoise grows. I've never had one fall off, but I take care to make sure they are centered, balanced, and I keep both hands ready to catch if needed.

The pic is pretty dark, but the growth looks pretty good from what I can tell.
