What scales does everyone use?

coombsy87

Hi all

Ive had a bit of a bummer today, been tracking weight loss at home on digital scales, then got weighed at gym and it recorded as 1 stone 3lbs heavier than I weighed at home today. I'm so confused and upset I don't understand!!

My question is, what does everyone weigh themselves with? Gym or at home? Wii fit? Digital or not digital? And what makes and models?

Any advice appreciated x

The only thing that matters is that you weigh on the same scale, at aproximately the same time of day, with the same amount of clothing on. Every scale could be a little different, but as long as you are weighing on the same one, you get a good picture of your true weight.

I now have a ConAir digital. I hate it because it tells me I'm 14# heavier than my old spring scale. :P

I use home scales weight watchers digital they measure the hydration level body fat ect. Mine stay in one place I never move them and never change the surface they are sat on to avoid any misreading, always wear similar clothing.

I just bought this one, too. I also have a regular dial scale that was really hard to read b/c the lines were so close together (or maybe I'm getting older and need glasses ) and they both say the same weight.

agree with this, i use weightwatchers scales and that measures, body fat, percentage of water as well and bmi

I have one of those doctors scales here at home but even mine and the drs office scale differs. I never trusted the digital ones. I guess its your preference as long as you weigh yourself on the same scale. Good luck and dont get discouraged. Eat healthy and excersice. You will lose the weight. I lost 90lbs a few years ago they it crept back after I stopped working so now Im doing it again the right way. I have lost 21 lbs since january 1st and dont starve myself. Just careful about what I put in.

I only weigh myself on the scale at the gym. It is within 1/2 lb. of my doctor's scale, and gives me a consistent measure.

I have a cheap Taylor brand digital scale that gives weight, body fat % and water %. I've had it for a few weeks and I like it. It was just $30 at Target.

I use an Eat Smart scale and love it. But yeah, you can't weigh yourself using several different scales. Pick one and stick with it. Bathroom scales aren't precision instruments, almost every single one is going to give you a slightly different number.

i use the eatsmart it matches the weight watchers scale when i have to go weigh in monthly. its easy no tapping just step on.

This is your absolute best bet.

I use the “Omron HBF-514”. This scale uses six body sensors and measures your Weight, BMI, Body Fat Percentage, Skeletal Muscle Percentage, Resting Metabolism, Body Age, and Visceral Fat. I got it for $65 on Amazon a couple of months ago. Good luck on your journey!
