Default Awesome Scale

Hi everyone
I just want to share about my new scale. It is called Thinner and it is made by conair. I purchased through Avon and it is awesome. You can set up to 10 users on it and it goes by height,age and gender. It tells your your weight,BMI and hydration levels. It was $50.00 but I think it is worth it. It takes the guess work out of things and is a great tool!!!!!

If anyone wants one contact an avon rep or find out if conair sells them anywhere else. It is nice and it doesn't come apart like others I have seen. I like the fact that the whole family can have a preset program. I also like the hydration factor. I don't always know if I have drank enough water.

I never know if I have gotten enough anything.

I work with an avon lady, I will look into that. I just bought two cheap ones last week, one for Lancaster and one for San Diego, they dont say the same, and my pcp is different, and so is Dr. Callery's. Sigh I don't know what I weigh now. I have been good, I ate alot of protein and no sweets, no frappuccino, no ice blended mocha, and it looks like I gained 5 pounds. I think it might be my cycle coming, but I would sure like a scale I can depend on to give me an accurate reading.

I have a really nice scale, has all the buzz and gadgets, and so far it has been pretty darn close to my doc so I trust it. Unfortunately it told me this morning I have gained 7lbs!! And I have been doing pretty much the same thing. Nothing really bad or out of line, although my overall calorie intake has increased since my stomache is not hurting all the time now. That really scares me. Now that I am 3+mo I will be eating a bit more than I was, and definately more foods that have calories. If I am going to gain like this I am in real trouble!! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh! I did start taking Prilosec though, is it possible I could be gaining because of the Prilosec?? Anyone heard of that?

I gain 10 lbs every month before I cycle and than lose the 10 plus a couple more.
