Bathroom scale recommendation anyone?

I will tell you that one scale will probably never match with another. Get a scale and follow the numbers on that one. 

I go to many doctors and my weight can be as different as 10 pounds. That could drive a gal crazy but fortunately I'm immune to that one.

I have an old white cheap old school digital scale from Walmart. It was cheap as hell, like 10 or 15 dollars. It stay in the bathroom. I weight myself daily after:

  1. I get naked
  2. Go pee & # 2 if its there

I use the scale on the EXACT SAME BATHROOM TILE each and every time I weight. This old cheap scale is very accurate. Both hubby and I use it and we when go to the doctors or me to my Centre our home scale is always within a pound or two of what the doc's scale says. I have had it at least 10 years, just changed the battery recently and its great. I only want weight (that's just me) so its great. I don't step on other peoples scales, like at my MIL or parents houses, that is not the one I use regularly so I still to my old cheap one. Just my two cents! Some day I would like to save up for a fancy scale but this one is perfect for me & hubby!

Happy shopping!

I have a cheap old digital one from Walmart too! It works great. I could step on it 3 times in a row and my weight is exactly the same, it never fluctuates. It's been pretty consistent.  I wonder if we have the same one, haha!

I keep thinking I will get a new fancy one too, but then why? If it ain't broke...

Don't laugh, if you have room these are the BEST!  I have had mine since 1980 and it's always right on!

This is what I have too! I invested in one when I made the decision to commit to WLS. I recently bought a second one for my Florida home as my piece of mind requires accuracy.

I bought the Weigh****ches scale at Costco, and I like it. We had some leftover 18"x18" ceramic tiles from when we remodeled the kitchen, so I used one to set the scale on in our bedroom (we have hardwood floors). Seems to be very consistent since then.

My husband bought us a Withings scale. It connects with your iPhone and to my fitness pal. I just step on it and it automatically charts my progress on the apps. I didn't dare ask how much it cost though.
