Digital is better for recording the readings. Here's an old thread with a link to what I use: http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/48802-i-need-a-scale

I bought my "Weight Watchers" brand digital scale from costco last year. It has a 400 lb weight capacity and works great. It only cost me like $20.00 as well. I love it because it give me the ounces as well. For example... 255.7 lbs. You can weigh yourself everyday and at least see if you lost some ounces. LOL!!! :)

Hope this helps!

I bought my scale from CBS for 9.99. It's digital gives the ounces also weight limit up to 400lbs. Since I have bought it it has been just as when I go to the doctor.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
