I read on a blog of a fellow sleever that Withings will calculate your BMI and connects to My Fitness Pal.

I just bought this one on Amazon the other day and it's pretty amazing: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003N4AVKE

It's also on sale for an additional 20% off, so it comes to $39.96.

I'm using a Health-O-Meter Professional sliding scale. The electronic stuff is crap, IMO.

scales suck! Measure your loss by your clothes. 18 years ago I was in a size 10 at 140.... Now I am in a size 7-10 at 170. Muscle takes up way less space then fat. I didn't need to read a scale to see that I went from a size 26-24 to what I am wearing now! :) here's to a success story in the making! :)

I am not certain that the brand really matters but I prefer a high capacity digital scale with NO memory. Sometimes the ones with a built in memory do not show the very small losses. I was never heavy enough that I HAD to buy a high capacity scale but they stand up to more wear and tear.

This is the one I have. I know the decription is off, but it is a 400 pound capacity.

I've had the same scale since being banded 9 years ago... it's a Tanita and it is still going strong. You can can put your hieght i and save for 3 users and it calulates your body fat %. It may be a little outdated now... but it never wavers in the weight it gives me... some scales I would get a different weight if I got on 3 times in a row! When it dies... which will probably be never at this rate I will probably get the same brand. :)

I have the Fitbit Aria. It doesn't track hydration but does body fat %, it's accurate and automatically syncs to MyFitnessPal or the Fitbit site. I love the scale since I also use the Fitbit so it was a no brainer. I also have a plain EatSmart scale, it doesn't measure anything but weight though, but it's also super accurate.

      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. 🤞
