Ugh ok - I think this was my scale:…

in Digital body weight scales that continuously update (like a kitchen or dial/analog scale)? Comment by enzamatic November 2014
Interestingly, it seems like people looking for something to display the weight of beer left in their keg are having the same struggle with digital scales - i/e/ having to remove/replace their keg to get a new reading. I'm thinking the biggest disadvantage with a scale that is taking constant readings is just that battery…

:P about the t-shirt lol. I realize this is all silly obsession - just trying to understand how kitchen and bathroom scales differ. What you just said - about one that zeroes every time & doesn't try to remember previous readings? Is what I'm at least hoping for. So the Tanita one is like that?

I get that (what would be the point) - I just am 1)only now buying a scale and prefer one that's not just masking the raw data for me, one that I can really see what the precision is and 2)curious why rather than dealing with customers complaining if the scale weight changes by just showing them their weight - they don't…

Any idea if there are any digital scales that act like an analog scale, or even a kitchen scale? I have a digital kitchen scale and I can watch the weight change as I pour it. Couldn't digital scales get out of this issue by just continually showing what they currently have? I.e...if someone hands me something I can see my…

I would add - my scale, and the one referenced above, definitely do NOT describe this behavior in documentation. If they would do that, maybe it would have some kind of a feature name I could look for and make sure I don't get in my next purchase. Instead it's part of their algorithm, in addition to the averaging of…

But really - does anyone know why they need to only do the weight calculation once? Kitchen scales continually update, so it's definitely doable.

Oh - some of them are doing it subtly - ours was not subtle. It seemed like you had to go out of like a 2 lb range to get it to "update". We could demonstrate it regularly like this. Get on/off 5 times, exactly same. Tap with foot, weigh something small. Get back on, weight changes but just a little. Weight was within what…

I'm with her ^^^ . EDITED <---my post didn't appear below the person I agreed with, and I'm too lazy to go back and find it. The rest still makes sense .. as any mom can tell you, you can only say how it went with your own kids. Mine are pretty tame for being boys. They're 10/12 now, but they were never really into…

Just curious, I too don't want to "eat back" exercise calories because I more consider them bonus. So...do you just ignore the "calories left" for the day and just try to make your goal calories match your consumed? I was surprised, having used "DailyBurn" in the past, that there wasn't an option to exclude exercise…
