If there is one appliance in my home that I dread the most it’s the scale. Frankly I rather not even own one, only because I rather NOT know how much I way. Sadly I know that having a scale in your home is a MUST. Not only is seeing the pounds drop off a great motivator, it’s also very important to know when you are gaining weight for your health’s sake. You simply cannot reply on how snug your clothes fit.
Over the years I’ve had a couple of scales. They were just plain, simple, boring scales with no “bells and whistles”. The scales available today are very high tech with great features.
When is comes to losing weight, staying healthy and eating right, Weight Watchers is certainly an authority. Weight Watchers has been around forever. That is because the plan truly works. The past two times I’ve followed Weight Watchers I did well.
Weight Watchers has teamed up with Conair to create a line of bathroom scales that do so much more then just tell you how much you weight.
I have one of the Weight Watchers by Conair Scales. I have the Glass Body Analysis Scale Model WW52.
Sorry about the smudges on the scale in the picture. I didn’t realize the flash was going to pick those up. Everyone in my home uses the scale. It sees a lot of use throughout the week. It’s bound to get some smudgies here and there.
The Weight Watchers by Conair Glass Body Analysis Scale Model WW52 features a 1.9” LCD screen with two lines of information. It also features impact-resistant tempered safety glass. I am happy about that because I really worried about my kids using the scale. Kids tend to be rough with things and the scale gets knocked around a lot. I’m glad the glass is impact-resistant and safe for the whole family.
The scale has a maximum capacity of 400 pounds. It also comes with long life batteries. We’ve been using the scale regularly for a few months now and the batteries are perfectly find.
What I really like about this scale is that it’s so much more then just something that tells you how much you weigh. This scale can also tell you vital information about yourself including your Body Mass Index (BMI), body fat percentage, water weight and even your bone density.
I’m not 100% sure what the difference is between your BMI and body fat percentage as I thought they were the same thing. None the less I am never happy with the results. I’m also not 100% sure about the water weight and bone density results either. From what I’ve read online my bone density seems to be OK (especially since I don’t have a lot of dairy in my diet). My water weight seems to be good too (I make sure to drink plenty of water every day).
The initial set up takes some time. You have to add in things like height, age and sex for everyone who will use the scale (up to four people). After it’s set up its easy enought to use.
I like the sleek, hi-tech looking design of the scale. It doesn’t look like your typical scale. The LCD screen is very easy to read too, even with my old eyes. Not that I’m exactly pleased with the numbers it gives me. Sigh… I need to lose weight!
If you are going to have a scale in your home it would make sense to have one that could tell you more then just how much you weight.
Weight Watchers by Conair have other varities of scales. They mostly all have the same features. They just have different looks to them. They range in price (roughly $30-$40) and are available at many retail locations including the Conair Store, www.Conair-Store.com.
Conair has generously offered to give a lucky reader their Weight Watchers by Conair Digital Painted Glass Scale Model WW24. This scale features an easy-to-read 1.3” digital display with a “tap-on” scale activator. This scale also has tempered safety glass with decorative silk screen design. The scale is 11.8” X 12.6” and has a 400 lb. capacity. It runs on long-life AAA lithium batteries that are included and has a 10-year warranty. It retails for $29.99. Thanks Conair.

My old scale is not digital and rusting …have to reset every time you use to 5lbs over to be accurate. I need to lose 30 lbs of “computer” weight and need to do it before a March vacation. the scale would help me keep accountable.
