Digital vs. Analog scale

I use a digital scale. If you move it you have to weigh yourself twice. The first weight will not be accurate. Have you weighed yourself more than once at a time to test the precision? You can also put weights on the scale to test accuracy.

Personally, I trust my analogue.

It gives me a pretty decent reading each time and if i weigh myself twice it's the same weight.

Every digital scale I've ever used measures me differently each time I use it.

How do you know the analog one is accurate and the digital isn't? It could very easily be the other way around. In reality as long as you weigh yourself on the same scales in the same place at the same time you will then get an accurate guide. The numbers don't in reality matter it's the consistency. There are many variables that can change those numbers do minimizing them is the key and using them as one of the guides to your weight loss

Digital for me. I think whichever scale you user it should always read you the same. So choose which you like and monitor your weight on that one, or for a while use both to check you trust them both lol!

I also use an old analog scale, which I like for two reasons:

--I can see whether or not the needle is aligning with zero before I step on, and whether it re-aligns with zero when I step off. If it isn't aligned, as often happens as the scale shifts around on the tile floor of my bathroom, I can use the dial to adjust it. I suspect that similar misalignments could occur inside a digital scale, but you'd never see it.

--I use the scale as a trend tool, so I actually like not having a precise number readout. I think I'd go crazy if I could see my weight down to the tenth of a pound. I've been maintaining for a year and my weight goes up and down within a 4 pound range, which I know is just normal water fluctuations. I don't need to know if I weigh 0.2 pounds more or less than yesterday, I just need to see that the needle is pointing to the correct zone on the scale.

I have a weight watchers digital and it varies 2.5- 2.8 kg PLUS. If I allow it to turn off and back on again and change position it will change and show more/less. But it also analyses body fat which interests me more than weight loss. But overall...I prefer the analogue one! Too bad I threw it away when I got the WW. wish I didn't!
My friend weighs in at Boots(uk) every couple of weeks, that's not bad either!

Obviously depends on the quality of the scale (not always dictated by price)

I would go with Digital purely because it doesn't leave you wondering "hey, is that arrow leaning more towards the left than last week or is it just my imagination?"
