The best body analysis scale?



Recommended Posts

Hi All! My surgery is in 1 week. I've lost 8 pounds on the liver - reduction diet so far. I realized that my Weight Watchers scale is under my bathroom vanity. In the house I sold 9 months ago, 2000 miles away. So, I need a new one. ☺ I am wondering if I should get another WW scale, or if anyone here has another brand that is reliable. I've been comparing scales at Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, and Amazon, but none really jump out. Any feedback is appreciated! I would like a body analysis scale, that shows BMI estimates and body fat, Water, etc.

I like my fitbit aria scale. It's wifi and logs all of my results along with my steps and sleep in the app. It does weight and body fat percentage. I recently had a body analysis done on a very expensive machine and the body fat percentages were nearly identical.

Thanks for the endorsement.

I used to think a scale is a scale is a scale.

Now, though, I think it would be highly beneficial for me to add one of those. The further I get with my Fitbit One, the more I see the way in which it could help me further.

I don't wear watches at work, however, the One does well on my keychain in my pocket. I'd like to add their upcoming wristwatch model and an Aria, too.

I think I can use the them in tandem. "One" during work hours and the wristwatch for everything else.

Getting my sleep measures would be nice to see as I know I fail badly with this.

The analysis from the scale would be very helpful, too as I close in on the final push to hit goal and then to maintain.

I shopped scales pretty heavily before my surgery. One of the more reliable brands is Tanita, but I am pleased with the EatSmart scale that I bought online. I had to buy a scale that could handle more than 300 lbs in the beginning and this scale has done really well. It shows Fat %, Water %, Muscle %, Bone Weight and Weight. I thought it was wrong at one point and tested it with an unopened 5 lbs. bag of flour. The scale showed exactly 5 lbs.. Can't argue with that. The scale was 100% correct.

The price on Wayfair is the lowest I could find online.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
