Hi-I wanted to start this thread just to see how many of you use the wii balance board as your scale that you weigh-in on weekly and how accurate do you think the wii balance board is?

I am asking because my home scale stopped working a couple of weeks ago and I haven't been able to get another battery for it and I have been using the wii balance board to weigh in once a week when I do my 9 week program on my EA Active 2 and the last couple of weeks it has been staying between 278-282 even though I have been exercising my butt off and paying attention to what I am eating so my question is this...

Do you think the Wii balance board as a scale is accurate?

Thank you,
Heather

I don't use it as a scale on a regular basis, but it seems pretty accurate for me. It generally weighs me about 2 lbs higher than the bathroom scale weighs me in the morning, but since I weigh first thing in the morning in the bathroom and later in the day if I use the Wii BB, that seems pretty consistent.

Thanks eclipse for your comment

I find it to be accurate, Same as eclipse said about a slightly higher read later in the day than my bathroom scale.

We use it Wii Fit daily in addition to the regular weekly weigh in on a "real scale".
It seems it is a bit nicer (weight & BMI) than the WW scale in the bathroom.
So actually not like the other comments. Hm...
