16 Step Off the Scale! There Are Better Ways to Gauge Your Weight
Using the scale has its place, especially if you are carefully tracking your weight-loss progress. But spending too much time focusing on a number can discourage you when you think you've dropped weight after a rigorous diet and exercise plan only to find that you haven't lost as much as you thought you have (which can happen for several reasons, usually because you are gaining muscle instead).

Mamas may sugarcoat the truth, and our friends may have a way of skirting the obvious, but scales . . . they don't lie. And even though I'm much more about feeling good and being fit than I am about meeting a weighty number, I do find that knowing my weight sometimes helps me stay on track — especially during the holidays! I've got a printout of this pic on my fridge so the next time I want to Read more
In college I lived with someone who kept a scale in our bathroom, and also her bedroom. She weighed herself at least twice a day, logging it into a notebook each time. She became so focused on her weight that the slightest increase — meaning one to two pounds — would cause worry. She never took into account that she was gaining muscle mass, or perhaps was particularly bloated that day. She Read more
Over the Winter, my hubby was spending a lot of time on the ski trails, but he was also doing a lot of après ski lodge time, and guzzling down beers and bar food with his buddies. Now that the bulky ski pants and jacket have been shed for Spring weather, he's realized it's time to lose some weight. I'm so proud of him for trading burgers for salads, and beer for water, and he even goes running Read more
Kelly Osbourne's bod is on its way to "sick" status, thanks to her stint on DWTS. She's noticeably shed pounds from her middle, giving her an ultra-trim waistline that she's proud to show off. In fact, costume measurements for the show reveal that she's lost two inches from her waist. Still, while she's focused and committed to getting in shape, she's not about to become a slave to the scale, Read more
I know positive reinforcement is important when you're trying to lose weight or maintain the weight you have, but if you buy a scale and keep it in your bathroom (especially a pink plushie scale), wouldn't you want the numbers? After your third plate of super-sized nachos, is it really going to help you to step on a scale and see "lovely," "sexy," and "perfect"? If you're going to forego numbers, Read more
While Nick Olsen suggests using large furnishings even if you have a small space, at some point, big becomes prohibitive. Instead, I say play with scale. Here, on a wall that is essentially just decorative, a small end table and side chair were used, while oversize vases and artwork make a statement. The table is only a stashing ground for odds, ends, and accent pieces, and the chair isn't meant Read more
If you're trying to maintain your current weight or lose a few pounds, weighing yourself periodically is a great tactic to keep an eye on your progress. Some people weigh themselves every few weeks or so at the gym or their doctor's office, but if you like to weigh yourself more often, owning your own scale is the most convenient option. So I'm wondering . . . Source Do You Own a Read more
I am not a big fan of weighing myself daily, but I also do not hate scales. I think of my scale as a tool — a means of checking in with myself, my eating habits, and my workout routine. Some people stand on a scale every day; it's part of their routine. Others just plain hate them and never weigh themselves. I am wondering about you . . . Source How Often Do You Weigh Yourself?

There are plenty of products marketed toward women, and until now toilets have been on pretty gender-neutral ground. Artist Haikun Deng is aiming to carve a niche toilet market with his Light Girl toilet design. The toilet seat doubles as a scale that weighs you before and after you've done your business. Deng thinks women will be drawn to his creation because they tend to be concerned about Read more
