Question for people who are or were over 300 lbs
Hi,
I'm a newbie here. Please tell me on what kind of scale you were weighed on at over 300 lbs. Most household scales go to 299. I'm finding it very frustrating that I don't know my true weight. Thanks for any info. Brand names of household scales would be very helpful. Peace. Tavligal --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

Someone here once suggested just buying two regular scales and standing with one foot on each one, and adding up the two weights. Em |

Someone here once suggested just buying two regular scales and standing with one foot on each one, and adding up the two weights. I was doing this and found it very frustrating. I wish I hadn't wasted money buying a second scale. I just bought a Tanita HD-351. Max weight 440 lbs, in 0.2 increments. Nice large Digital readout. Memorizes 5 different users. Always displays previous weigh-in each time. $74.95 http://www.scalesgalore.com/pbath.htm It is the second one on the page and the cheapest on the site for the over 330 lb crowd. This place had the best price w/shipping figured in. It was also closer to me (NY) and came quickly. They are out of stock till 1/28 though. DiGiTAL_ViNYL (no email) |

My wife checked her weight on the scales at her work (she works in a hospital) and the scales at my GNC were accurate. That is an option. I usually check once a week. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sooner or later, all of our names wind up on a Post-It. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Its brand new but I am over 350 so am patiently waiting to use it. I have never been a slave to the scale but it is a pain to run to the doctors office to weigh. When I was 414 I couldnt weigh at the doc's. Get this.... I had to weigh out doors down at the fish loading dock by crawling onto a giant platform scale. Speaking of scales.... I'm hoping to continue "scaling" down. It will be nice to step on a tiny scale LOL Laureen |

I just went to the Doctor's office weekly. I didn't have to check in
or anything. I just walked back to the scale & weighed myself. That was 6 months ago. Now I can weigh myself on any ole scale. WOO HOO! ********************** Tammy Matlock Atkins since 07/02/03 317/285.0/180 ********************** "TavliGal" wrote in message news:yT6Pb.180288$JQ1.105218@pd7tw1no... Hi, I'm a newbie here.

Steffen With Tanita it will definitely depend on the model. Mine only goes to 300, so my husband can't yet weigh on it. He uses the scale at the gym. Cynthia |
