I am not sure how to answer this. I get on the one we have at home and hope it keeps going down the direction I need.

Good luck finding one.

i found the WW digital scale on clearance a target a year or more ago and bought it -- i like it

that said -- there is the part of me that realizes the number is just a number. it's so very easy to get hung up on it -- but whether your scale is super accurate or 5 lbs off, it should still measure change in that you'll see a smaller number as you lose. beyond that -- measure yourself -- inches lost are a fantastic way to track your progress and realize the body changes you are undergoing.

Hey -- meant to answer you over on the peep thread, but was a bit busy last night... I bought an Omron scale off of Amazon a few months ago. It seems to be pretty consistent and matches pretty well with the scale at my moms. As long as the number keeps going down, I'm happy!!

The one I bought was about $37: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FJQ48I/002-0370255-2544848

Good luck!

I bought the same scale in Costco. I like it because it can record your weight and it gives you a goal weight loss.

Each time you get on it it tells you your current weight, how much you've lost (or gained) since your last weigh-in, how much you've lost from the beginning and how much more you have to lose to reach your goal.

I find it very encouraging.

Yes, the WW scale that I have can hold the data for 4 separate people.
