Scales

Hey does anyone know where I can find a scale that goes over 300lbs? I am tired of waiting to weigh in at my dr's appointments once a month! I've tried looking online, but maybe I'm looking in all the wrong places...

I bought one at Wal-Mart that would weight up to 350 pounds. I also see several at Amazon that goes beyond 300 pounds.

Additional Info!

I was told to get tanita scales that also do bmi, I've not researched them but they are supposed to be very accurate

The majority of the digital scales will go to 350 or more. Don't pay too much for something fancy because hopefully you won't need a special scale in the near future.

PuppyBandit,

I have a tanita (albiet an older model) and bought it for the BMI. I will say though, I'd have been just as good with a regular scale, that doesnt do BMI. It is very iffy, and I say there is no way I am 49.5 according to my scale at least the last time I weighed. Hmmm, I think I will go see now what it says. :)

Ok, I just weighed. According to my scale, I am 224.5 (I have already drank coffee and eaten today..so that is normal) and my BMI is ready??????? 49%. ALWAYS 49% and the last time I weighed at 240..it was 49%. SO I say, spend the money on a good digital, but don't worry about BMI. The lower your weight, the lower your BMI. Take it with a grain of salt!

We have a weight watchers scale that we got at bed bath and beyond and it weighs up to 400 pds. I think it was about $45.00. It has all the bells and whistles but we don't use them. It does save the previous weight for up to 3 people. Hope this helps.
