Never Thought I'd Be Excited About Getting A New Scale..

By Wisdom2KnowTheDifference

· 458 views

Well, like the title says, I got a new scale! It is a Weight Watchers brand scale that is digital and calculates all kinds of things like weight (of course), body fat percentage, water percentage, bone mass, and BMI. It even lets you store up to 4 "users" with your height, age, and gender. Not sure how precise all the percentages are for under $30 but I think its pretty cool. And, I had a 20% off Bed Bath and Beyond coupon :D

 

The scale is kinda a big deal because prior to starting my lap-band adventure I had a non-digital scale that was easy for me to fool myself with. "what does that say? I'll just round down..." haha.

 

Anyone else have any new weight-loss related purchases?

    I just bought a new scale off of Amazon and I am SO excited for it to come! All of the reviews mentioned how accurate and consistant it was. My scale now is good, it does weight, body fat, and hydration percentage, but it's not very consistant. My new scale should be here today. Even though the numbers don't quite say what I want them to, it's still very exciting.

    I like the sound of your scale, Wisdom. I bought a gym bag to motivate me to work out before heading into work. Go me!
