    I use a digital scale at home, but a manual scale at my dieticians. However, they get their scale calibrated, so it's definitely more accurate.

    it depends on the scale more or less... if you can find a 10 pound weight and place it on it, and it says it is 10 pounds, Then your good. (the higher the weight the better the test)

    Calibrated scales are the best, but they need to be calibrated ever so often or they could be off jsut as a normal one can be
