Recommend A Good Electronic Scale

[Sad Clown]

I like to weigh myself every morning when I first wake up to update a personal log of mine that tracks my intake of calories, exercise, and best guess at protein, carb intake. This is something I have been doing for a long time.

I am looking for an accurate electronic scale that I can use to get a consistent weight on a daily basis.

My current electronic scale has too much variance in it. It is a bit frustrating seeing it swing by more then 2 lbs sometimes as I will step onto the scale 3 times to get an average. At this point I typically step onto it 3 times and take the average as I can't seem to get a consistent weight on it.

I am not looking for anything bulky. I would prefer something with a small form factor that I can put under my bed when I am not using it. I also don't need any of the crazy bells and whistles either. Just something that will give me a relatively accurate but consistent weight.

I appreciate any recommendations you guys can throw my way.

I just got a "Weight Watcher Scale by Conair WW39 Digital Glass Scale". It was about $45 shipped from Amazon and had good reviews. Works fine, no frills:

Thanks for the heads up. I went ahead and ordered one. Did you have to calibrate it at all before you started using it?

You have to whack your foot in the middle and wait a few seconds...it tunes itself to zero, then you step on. I'd use it on a hard, flat surface instead of carpet. The first time I used it, it wasn't very accurate, but you have to get on and not move - hold still while it weighs you. After that, it has been accurate 1:1 when I've weighed myself twice in succession.

I prefer the Tanita body composition scales that monitor everything from weight, muscle mass, bone density, etc.
