S/C/G: 149/139.5/124

Height: 5'1"

Default Whats a good scale???

OK, so i dont think my digital scale is too accurate. When i stepped on it this morning it called out my weight at 140 and then when i stepped on it a few minutes later, it said 140.5....

well this measurement wasnt that far off, but there have been other times when i would measure twice in a row and get two different results!!!

So is there a more accurate cheap scale that anyone knows of??

I have the WW digital scale and it does the same thing to me. In one spot I'm one weight, move it a minute later and its something different. I've been told to trash it and just get an old fashion dial scale, but I've yet to do it so what I do for now is weigh myself a few times and which ever weight comes out twice or three times thats what I go with or if all different i go with the lowest one

I'm in the process of researching scales. I have a Health-O-Meter and don't feel it's always holding true. The winners of my research seem to be Weight Watcher and Tanita digital scales. I'm still holding out for further opinions so I hope we see some in this thread.

Hmmm. I have had pretty good luck with my WW scale. It's pretty accurate, and pretty!
