    take a letter-sized piece of paper
    draw your feet on it
    put "you're awesome" at the top

    done.

    I have a Tanita and love it. It's the one that also (supposedly) measures body fat. The weight seems to be very accurate & consistent. I'm not sure how accurate the body-fat measure is, but I figure if it keeps going down that's good.

    I can step on and off and on and off and move it around and it gives me the same number.. digital and has cells in each corner so if your floor is uneven, it still weighs evenly

    I have the WeightWatchers digital scale, love it. Says exactly the same no matter how many times I stand on it during one weighing session lol..

    My scale is a digital one. Health-O-Meter brand. It's a "weight trend tracker"

    It asks me if I have a goal (which mine is to lose) and each weigh-in it will show a green light (lost) or red light(gained). It also give me a BMI reading - which is pretty accurate.

    So would I have to take down the one on my mirror with the drawing of my face on it?

    Thanks for the recommendations, all. While the "don't use a scale" method works for some, it doesn't for me.

    I like my eat smart scale (search for eat smart bathroom scales on amazon, I have the glass one) it has a "step-on" feature so you don't have to tap it or anything. It gives consistent results - a bit too consistent sometimes like if you weigh wearing a light t-shirt then weigh again without it soon after it'll give the same result. you have to pick up something heavy & weigh again for it to notice small changes. BUT if you are a sane person and weigh 1x a day it's great and I like knowing that it is an accurate result, that I don't have to move it all over the bathroom and weigh 20x and try to average all the results to see what I really weigh. :smile:
    I bought this Eat Smart scale last week, and love it (have been through 3 scales in 4 years that I hated) - http://amzn.com/B0032TNPOE

    Weight Watchers scale at Bed Bath and Beyond. it was reasonably priced :-) Very accurate, doesn't fluctuate.
