Wii fit query

I'd like to know how accurate people think the wii fit is with regards to BMI and weights.

My SIL is weighing herself on both the wii and normal scales but they seem to be different, although both consistant with her weight loss. (ie she lost 3lb this week on both but neither read the same).
She has electronic WW scales IIRC.

Anyone tested their wii fit?

    There is a difference between my analog scales and the Wii fit. Not sure which is the most accurate.

    The Wii has the facility to correct for clothing, its also important to have it on a solid floor and not thick carpet.
    You could try getting on with and without a know weight ( bag of spuds?) and do the maths.
    It seems to agree with the cheap digital scales I got from Lidl some time ago, but that could just be coincidence.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
