Hello everyone! I am looking to replace my body weight scale with a more accurate one. My current scale seems gives readings all over the place. I would like to see if anyone has recommendations for a new digital scale. If it is myfitnesspal compatible it would be a bonus!

Anyone have any suggestions would be appreciated!

    If you mean body weight vs food weight - I've been using the fitbit aria - seems accurate and with the added bonus of updating the fitbit and MFP sites automatically via wifi

    I just bought an Epic digital scale though Amazon, 36 bucks and it was spot on. Nice big bright blue numbers too.

    What do you mean by "all over the place?" Does your scale fluctuate by 0.5-5 lbs, or by 5-50 lbs? Every scale will do the former because your weight isn't consistent.

    Edit: And just to be pedantic, you don't need an accurate scale for this problem, you need a precise scale.

    Zedeff I agree with the distinction. Give me precise and I can figure out how to adjust the number to an accurate one.

    I generally agree that weight fluctuates but my scale would literally show me losing 7 lbs overnight. Not a good trending tool.....
