Do you have a scale?

[lml32937 65]

I have NEVER owned a scale for OBVIOUS reasons...not even with my lapband did I get one- I would wait and weigh in at my doc's office. Now with the sleeve and the weight loss being what I am hopeing is much more drastic/dramatic I feel like I should consider buying one BUT I dont want to gain another obsession... any suggestions??

I have a Biggest Loser scale that I got on clearance at Kohls. It works great, it's digital, and it goes up past 400 pounds (which I needed when I bought it).

I have this guy and I'm very pleased with it. I was 465 at my peak and it never yelled at me

Great scale

I'd say get a scale....it is LOADS of fun in the beginning to see the scale go down EVERYDAY!! LOL....just know that at some point it will slow down and will start going up and down daily (like a regular person!)...so if you feel like you can deal with the fluctuations, I say go for it!! I love my scale, keeps me accountable, but I've also learned that it doesn't rule my life. Its just a tool, just like my sleeve!! ;o)

I have a Taylor scale I bought from Target. I compared it to my Dr,s Office Detecto Balance Beam scale and it's pretty spot on. It's only off by less than a pound I think. It cost me about 35 bucks.

Good luck!

I use my wii fit to weigh in, though I do not do it everyday and my "official" weight loss is based on the numbers that I get from my surgeon's office, since the two are a bit off. I always used to be the "weigh every day" type of person, but I found doing my PSWL that I enjoyed seeing the larger numbers and it took the pressure off of me. I fluctuate a lot during a week, so to do it everyday was difficult when it went up. During my PSWL I didn't have a scale so I had to wait for my official weigh-in, now I much prefer to wait.

Taylor Electronic scale with the blue backlight. I think I got it at Target. It is the ONLY scale that I can step on and off three times and get the same reading each time. I LOVE it.

Of course I will love it even more when the number goes down on it. :thumb:

I wish there was an affordable scale for those of us around 550lbs

I have a german SECA scale. It reads up to 200Kg (440lb). Prior to my surgery and till yesterday the scale displayed "STOP" in a clear indication that I exceeded its limit.

Today March 25 and exactly 2 weeks after my surgery I see "200.8". I am very happy with this reading !!!

I have a Tanita HD-351. It was expensive for a scale (I think I paid about $75), but it weighs up to 440 pounds.

I weigh every day, so a good scale is invaluable to me.

If you check Amazon, there are 550 lb capacity scales starting at about $50.00. No idea how reliable they are, though.

I do not have a scale because I only weigh in at doc's office. I just get more excited when I weigh and see a loss rather than weigh all the time and be disappointed. That's just me. I wish you all the best.
