Happy Father’s Day everyone! If you’re looking for a great gift for today or any day, EatSmart recently launched a new addition, the EatSmart Precision Tracker Digital Bathroom Scale.
Weight is such an odd thing. It can affect our health, our sense of self, our ability to do all the things we’d like — and summer is the time when I usually look more closely at mine. After all, summer is just around the corner meaning swimsuits, shorts, sundresses and sandals and I want to look my best. But, not just that, I want to feel my best so that I can do all the fun things I want to. I find that the better I eat and the more water I drink, the better I feel. Losing weight and looking good is an added benefit.
This new scale that I have been reviewing has made the process of keeping my weight in check more fun and more enjoyable. I can track my progress and that makes it like a game almost. Let’s see if what I eat and the amount I exercise can really affect my weight. Now, I’m not one to keep notebooks with tables of figures, so what I really like is that you can very simply program this scale at the touch of a button (up to 8 users). From then on, each subsequent weigh in will be measured against this starting point. (I put a sticker on the bottom of the scale with the date I started).
After each use, the scale will display three readings: current weight, weight change from the last weigh in, and total change from the starting weight. This is great motivation and helps me find the best diet and exercise strategies for my lifestyle. I’m not one to be overly weight-conscious so I allow myself splurges with friends, and it’s really interesting to see how they affect my weight. When I’m keeping a healthy diet with lots of veggies and water, I can really see the change and it makes me want to keep going to reach my goals. When I exercise or slack off, I see the changes. Your numbers are personal, private, and the scale does the tracking for you.
This scale also looks really cool. It’s super thin, sleek, modern and elegant – and on top of that, it works great. It has a large LCD display with a white backlight making it easy to read, even at night with the lights off. It doesn’t take up much space and it really adds to the decor. I love that it’s so user-friendly. Seriously user-friendly.
A few tips:
Don’t drive yourself crazy weighing yourself every minute (unless you want to!). It’s normal for your weight to fluctuate during the day and from one day to the next (even from a simple glass of water).
Do weigh yourself at the same time of day if possible for the most accurate results, preferably when you wake up in the morning.
Give yourself a break! Stress can add to your weight. As long as you have a long-term goal and stick to it, a few slips won’t destroy it unless you let them.
I love this scale the most of any I’ve ever had for style and function! I love that I can track my progress. I highly recommend this scale for anyone who wants to get a good read on their weight in the short and long term.

The scale will help me and hubby stay healthy and fit.

I need a scale that’s going to track my weight consistently. All the other scales I’ve had give me different results if I step on it several times in a row!.

I think this scale would just keep us more aware of our actual weights – which we are ignoring right now.

I’m working on losing weight for my son’s wedding in July. A good scale would be nice.
it would help us keep track of our weight loss and give me more incentive to work out and eat better.
Mine broke so this would be great to have since mine is broken!!!
my dad and I workout together so it would help us keep track of how much weight we are gaining/losing.
This would be great for my sons who are trying to gain weight.
This scale would help me to maintain the weight I’ve worked so hard to achieve. If I saw I was gaining weight I could re-evaluate my diet/workout and make changes to get back to a weight I’m happy with.
I need a new one and I am currently working out so this would be a great tool.

I’m trying to get a hold on my eating habits before my wedding in August, and I’ve been exercising like crazy, so hopefully the scale will help curb overeating at night if I keep it in the kitchen!
My family needs this because our scale is a cheap-o piece of crud, and my dh weighs himself way too often!
We need this because our scale is so cheap I don’t think it works accurately. That, and my husband weighs himself multiple times a day. He’s crazy.
