Default scales...
So my old scale, which has been good to me for the past 10 or so years has finally decided to kick the bucket this morning.

any suggestions for a new one would be appreciated...i was on the bed and bath website and they all seem to do different things...

just need a direction to go in!

wish there was one that would plug into my computer and help me track that way!

I also have a weight watchers one. I don't like mine. After only a year, it doesn't work well. Every time I step on it it gives me a different number (within a 3 pound range). I have even changed the batteries, and it still does the same thing.I think I am also in the market for a new scale.

I've had a tanita body fat scale for almost 9 years and it has served me well (moving from dorms to apartments to back home, very sturdy). Obviously the body fat% is not super accurate but it still measures trends, up or down.

I got this 10 dollar one at CVS. It's clear (so..don't put it in the way of the main walk way...everyone trips over it. oops!) and it's pretty accurate too!

I'm afraid if I buy myself a scale I won't have any motivation to actually go to WW meetings! There are some pretty nifty ones out there though...

I saw scales on sale at target the other day. I have one made by Taylor. It weighs to the tenth and does body fat% and has memory etc. I think I paid about $30 for it. I'm almost positive I saw it For $20 at target.

I love it.... I usually love it more when it moves in the right direction.

I also have a WW digital scale; it's manufactured by Conair and just branded with WW logo, so I'm not sure it's the same one others have or a different one. I got it from Bed Bath and Beyond. I like that it shows me BMI right on the scale; don't have any excuse not to calculate it since it's already done!

I have a taylor one too. Sounds the same as feral's. Although i bought the breast cancer one. I love pink plus always support that cause, so why not make looking at it a little more enjoyable! lol...

But it is a good one, is consistent and accurate.

I have a sunbeam one that my mom bought about 2 years ago. It is nothing fancy but it works.

Mine's a sunbeam one, too. I just bought it at Walmart yesterday for $8! It's a dial scale, but very accurate so far
