Accurate scale

Have you replaced the battery lately? Mine starts being inconsistent when the battery is dying. Try swapping for a new one and seeing if you have better luck before dropping money on a new scale!

Like Kathy, I have an old-fashioned balance scale that I bought when I started on the WLS "journey". It kind of marked my commitment to doing this all the way. I do love that it is completely accurate because having a scale that fluctuates drives me crazy. I need to buy a new one for our winter condo in Florida and I think I may just get the same one:

I absolutely LOVE-LOVE-LOVE my Fitbit scale! Did I mention I love it?
It sends my daily weigh-ins right to my computer and graphs the results. It seems to be accurate and consistent. My favorite thing is that it also calculates body fat percent which does not fluctuate the way weight does and is a better indicator of what I am losing. I definitely recommend getting one. It is well worth the investment!

It can weigh you on carpet, tile, etc. and still give you the same reading (i tried it out). It goes down to the tenth (.0) so that is nice. Plus it is the only scale on the market that does the pulse wave (tests your heart health).
It connects well to Myfitnesspal as well......but if you do not use MFP it has it's own app.

PS I have the "deluxe version". It's the one that is about 140 dollars. But the cheaper version is only 40 or 50- it just tracks your weight very accurately
