Old Style Weight Loss Challenge 2021 - 2nd Quarter

I've decided that it might be worth buying some new scales - can anyone recommend some?  Nothing too fancy - just ones which weigh fairly consistently!  Thanks

Mine are Salter ones, I got the in Argos about £20, no frills and they do the job

I think my current ones are Salter ones - they seem sell quite a range!  I bought these in Tesco not that long ago

I have had these ones for about 3 years with no problems, they seem pretty consistent

Mine are Salter as well. They were cheap ones from Argos and, as long as I put them on a completely flat part of the floor, they weigh pretty consistently. Not that I've been testing this out much recently as I've still got my head stuck firmly in the sand... The realisation that I'm going to have to leave the house and see people soon has scared me into at least thinking about getting my act together so hopefully I'll be able to report a loss eventually.

Best of luck and stay safe everyone xx

Well done on the loss Iantanna     and here's hoping for a better week short_bird I'm sure the mix of Easter and the colder weather has ganged up on you  

My scales are also cheap salter ones from Sainsburys when I use to go to SW they were only a half lb out from their ones.  I only use them on the tiled bathroom floor in the same place.  There's no exciting features with them I decide I know how fat I am without the scales telling me what the % is   

Izadora I can't go back into the office until I can fit back into my work clothes I'm living in lounging pants and not quite so baggy tops at home  I also can't go until I've had the mop cut which hopefully is next Thursday  I would lose weight with 5 months worth of hair

I can report a 1 lb loss since 1 April.  To help, I did breathe out when I stood on the scales!

So that was achieved with an average calorie intake of 1770.

record since today's weigh-in
Thursday    1518 cals     7 veg/fruit

It was worth the calorie counting LittleVoice
