| What is a good body weight scale? I've started a new health/weight loss program offered by my company and we're required to submit our weights weekly. The scale I have now is horrible - I can get on it four times in a row and get four very different results. Help!! I need an accurate scale. What's a good brand (there's so many!)?

| I've had a simple Weight Watchers scale that I got at Wal-Mart. It even measures in tenths.

| Is it pretty consistent? If you stepped on it 4 times, one right after the other, does it give a consistent reading? Mine jumps up/down pounds at a time on each reading.

| It's perfectly consistent. Just leave it in one place and don't move it around. It must be on a hard surface - not carpet. I think moving scales around will result in inconsistent readings, too. Not that you were moving yours around.

| Nope, but it was sure acting like I was. Thanks!
