I am trying to lose a few pounds ad I knew I wouldn’t be able to do it without having scales everywhere around me. I need a constant reminder that I have a goal and I ant to accomplish it. there are so many different type of scales I didn’t know how I was going to chose the best one for me. I saw one at the store the other day that actually talked to you when you stood on it. I decided to look around a little before I made my decision.
