LOL!  There is not a single scale in our house.  I do not believe in them.
If your clothes are not fitting comfortably or if you do not have the
stamina to participate in some type of physical exercise, then it is time to
"Move it, Move it" and modify your food intake.  I do not need a scale to
tell me that.

All that just to weigh yourself? Seems like tech overkill.

I recently listened to a podcast on Blind Alive which provided some feedback
about scales that use Bluetooth technology to interface with your Smart
Phone.  Not that I want to take my phone in the bathroom, but having the
option of listening to the announcement of my weight via earbuds from my
phone is appealing.

HTH,
Annette

I have a talking bathroom scale I got at Amazon.  It looks like a flat piece
of glass with feet.

This morning, I weighed myself, and the answer didn't sound right, so I did
it again to see if I got something similar.  I weighed myself 5 times before
I got 2 similar numbers, and the range was about 10 pounds between 1 minute
and the next.  So this scale is pretty much useless.

Can anyone recommend a talking scale that's reasonably accurate?

Thanks.

Tracy
