I bought this one on Amazon. Seems to be a real good product. Been happy with it. post-217811-14209821077789_thumb.jpg

The Tanita brand is consistently the highest rated by Consumer Reports. I have one and I like it.

I recommend you don't have one at all. I use the one at my dr's office. Seriously. I also use the electronic one at the gym. Dr's office is once a month. I'm just now coming up on 4 months post op from banding. I use the one at the gym if I think about it. It's so easy to become obsessed with your scale just like before WLS. It becomes another way to "scale" your success or failure. I personally prefer use of a scale in a "safe" place where I have support if it's not what I had hoped to see or even when it's better than what I hoped to see.

      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! 😞
