I bought a body-composition scale from Tanita. I'm not sure if it goes above 300 pounds though. I like that it tells me my weight, body fat, Water composition, muscle mass and BMR.

I have the same scale and I've noticed it's very wonky. The ballpark weights are right, I think, for the most part. But I've noticed sometimes it will "stick" on the last weight recorded and give that as the first weight the next day. I weigh myself 2-3 times with it just to make sure. Oh well, as long as the numbers keep going down, that's all I care about :D

I have the biggest losers scale, and its is the most accurate I have ever had. I weight myself fully clothes shoes on before a dr apt. The same as they do and they are pretty much the same. Sometimes mine sayd I weight about .2 pounds more at the dr... so its good :)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
