For Christmas last year I treated myself to these scales. I know you probably shouldn't weight yourself every day, but I love doing it just to see any little fluctuations. I found writing stuff down to be a real pain before and also I wanted some scales which could also measure body fat.

The scales send the readings to the Withings website using WiFi so there's no messing about at all. There's also a really great iPhone/iPad app (Android too now) which you can use to view your progress in a variety of ways.

For the really brave, you can also connect them to Facebook or Twitter to keep your friends notified on your weight loss.

The only downside is they are a little pricey, but I would heartily recommend them. Does anyone else use these scales here?

[This isn't an advert I promise, I just really like the product!]

    It's a French company that makes these, but you can get them in the US certainly:

    These are the scales that Apple would have made :wink:

    I've been using mine for nearly 18 months now, great way to stay honest about your progress! I also love the fact that I don't have to remember to write anything down after I have weighed myself.

    The scales will also record your percentage fat, while it isn't the most accurate way to measure fat it will give you an idea of the trend over time.
