What Is The Best Scale/body Composition Analyzer?



Recommended Posts

I got sleeved on 5/30/12 and bought a lovely scale (Beuer BF66) to track my weight-loss, bone density, Water, etc., but it was recently damaged (thanks to our upstairs neighbors flooding our apartment) and needs to be replaced. Even though I loved it, Bed Bath & Beyond doesn't carry it anymore for a quick buy, so now I'm looking into other scales that measure everything. I still have a high BMI of 32, so it can't be for the next Iron Man or anything. I'm looking into the Omron HBF514, Seca 804 and browsing into Tanita scales. Any insight would be helpful! Thanks!

I'm going for the fitbit and the Fitbit Aria wireless scale to sync with myfitness pal.

None of the home units are particularly accurate, I wouldn't spend the money.

An affordable commercial option you could do once or twice a year is the BOD POD: http://www.cosmed.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1262&Itemid=310〈=en

I have one similar to this one. It shows the same bodyfat % as my doc ofc scale. Mine shows I've gone down from 43% to 27%. Even if it's not 100 % accurate. It still motivsting and shows its going DOWN. ;)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
