If they're going to whine about being shamed by the scale, might as well make it true.
I remember seeing an old sitcom where someone got a talking scale. A big fatty stepped on it and it said "one at a time please."

That could be the basis of a whole 'hidden camera' style TV show! I would watch it!

All scales should zap fatties. Actually, people should be able to carry tazers and taze their ugly asses.

How accurate are those? I've always wanted one.

Their neither accurate or precise. Numbers will change from a morning to the night, and they may not even be accurate to your correct percentages.

Damn, well thanks for the heads up!

Not accurate enough to be worth the money.

Meh, they're useful IMO. While it is correct that they're not accurate nor precise, the trend that you can plot with these readings across days/weeks is accurate enough to be useful.

Thqts actually pretty cool, where can you buy those scales?

I wouldn't trust them. They're notoriously innacurate. A cheap pair of fat calipers will tell you your bf % more reliably. A DXA scan could tell you the other information accurately, but they're expensive.

I got mine from a customer loyalty point system at my local store. I guess any electronics retailer will do. I wouldn't recommend it though. I had the opportunity to compare results with a different model at my gym and the results were pretty divergent. If I'd paid full price I'd be bloody pissed.
