    Most digital scales are pretty dang accurate and provide repeatable results. Just calibrate it once a year and it will be fine.

    But your advice about measurements is good. That helps you gauge fat loss. Especially important if you’re also doing lifting.
    I'm just never sure where to measure my waist and hips. Feels like I measure too high or too low.

    Never trust a scale, Kep.

    Tuesday, went to my general practitioner, and my weight was 216.x.

    Yesterday, went to an orthopedic doctor, and my weight was 210.6.

    If you wish to gauge your progress on fat loss, check your waist and hip measurements every two weeks or so.

    I should sue these guys, I had the same idea years ago.

    That was really well done. :-)

    I could have sworn Lose It is also web-based if needed

    Has to be PC-based for me, anyway. Phones are no bueno.

    They have a phone app.

    I like My Fitness Pal for an app. The Lose It app, as I recall, had some features or missing things that bugged me. Then again. My Fitness Pal has its problems, too, but works well for my needs.

    I have yet to find a really good calories counting site so if the store/restaurant doesn't offer it I try to find a best match.
