I gave up worrying about how accurate my bathroom scales are a long time ago. It seems to be that the most important thing is to make sure you weigh yourself on the same set of scales, at the same time of day. That's the way to get the most accurate reading.

My daughter had some digital scales in her bathroom that I used to use occasionally. Then she moved out and her scales went into the attic in her boyfriend's house. I'm not really keen on having scales in the house as I have a tendency to jump on and off them and get dispondent. But I did buy one set. However, the dial was so small I couldnt' read the result so I took them back. Since then I've not weighed myself.

Until last week that is when my son bought a Nintendo Wii and I bought a Wii fit. Now I'm able to weigh myself as part of a "workout" as the fitness board has a built-in scale. Not sure how well I'm going to do, however, as since I started using it I'put on weight rather than losing it!
