    Does having a scale in your bathroom help you lose weight?

    Opinions both on and off the web seem to vary, but most seem to favor the answer being yes. Then again some of those websites are also trying to sell scales.

    What do you all think?

      No, but it's great if you want to stub your toe on it in the middle of the night.

            THIS...you can be losing inches and not pounds. Also, if u have a scale u tend to weigh yourself too frequently. 1x a week preferably

              Huzzah!

              It's helped me, because moments before gazing into my ugly reflection with a nearly violent amount of self-hatred, I can look down at the scale and see what a disgusting fatbody I've become.

              It's helped me lose twelve pounds! Nothing like being disgusted with what a pile of shit you are to kick motivation into overdrive.

                  I think it helps to keep you in check. It's really easy to not notice a small gain, which often becomes a bigger gain. Having a scale will help you to identify the beginning of the weight gain, and will hopefully invite you to change things before it goes further.

                    I weighed more and looked better, I weighed less and looked worse.
                    I'd say a big fat mirror and a scale and (if you're that serious) day by day pics and a stats sheet will work the best if you're working out and are on a diet.

                      Not necessarily. For many it is nothing more than a 'decoration' in their homes. Learning your BMI in junction with a healthy diet & regular exercise, will go a lot further than weighing yourself daily.

                                Get a smart scale. Not only does it measure you weight but it also shows you your BMI and Fat. I have one that reports to my iPhone and Tracy and I use it all the time. Tracking the results give you easy goals to reach. Best of all, results of eating better and jogging or biking a little show results quickly. Even if the results are small the boost is enough to make you want to keep going.

                                  I found getting cancer a great way to lose weight. Then getting a big dog that likes long walks helped. LOL

                                          I think a scale helps you lose weight if you don't eat it.

                                                    It has been my experience that it's a grave mistake to stop eating all together. Not only does it send your body's metabolism into "famine" mode where it preserves the fat and draws from your muscles, but when you start eating once again (and you will) it start storing more fat to compensate.

                                                    Better to ajust your eating, spread 4-6 smaller healthier meals out throughout the day, which causes your metabolism to go into "feast" mode, where it will burn fat rather than store it. Of course doing some regular exercise speeds up this process immensely.

                                                    Not eating is generally not a good idea.

                                                      A scale is essential and using it is essential for most people. It keeps you aware of how you are eating/exercising/progressing on a day to day basis. Not using it allows you to keep lying to yourself, rationalizing and make no progress.

                                                      A scale is super important to losing weight... unless ones change to diet/exercise is radical enough that they are losing 1/2 a pound a day consistently or something without really knowing or caring where their scale weight is.

                                                      Most people however, are 100% clueless not only about what it takes to lose weight, but also to the extent they rationalize and lie to themselves day in and day out - as they see no progress.

I have one that reports to my iPhone and Tracy and I use it all the time. Tracking the results give you easy goals to reach. Best of all, results of eating better and jogging or biking a little show results quickly. Even if the results are small the boost is enough to make you want to keep going.
                                                            Anything that calculates BMI and Fat is highly inacccurate. For example on the gym scale im 13% bf, when I got hydro-tested i was actually 9%...huge difference.
