Bathroom Scales Survey

[migtig]

So my husband, the handsome and wonderful Giant, went out and lovingly bought new bathroom scales. Our old ones are off a bit.

He actually invested some time and research into his effort and chose a pretty hi-tech gadget that looks cool. It weighs you, gives a digital read-out and then posts your weight to the internet. Yes, to the internet. I said no way.

I am not using those scales, not because I weigh too much, (actually thanks to warnutz recommending a protein powder I actually weigh in enough now), but because there's something about posting my weight to the internet that makes me shudder. It goes against everything in my female nature. I hate to be weighed at the doctor's office, much less be posting my weight online.

I think technology has gone too far.

He said fine and has no problem weighing himself and posting it online. He says I can continue to use the scales that add three pounds. Which I am fine with.

What say you? Do you want everytime you weigh yourself in the bathroom, for your name and weight to be posted online?

I think it's a cool idea. It could give someone a bit of motivation if they knew everyone was watching their progress. I'm all for it.

I weigh 206.8 as of Sunday (last day I got on the scale).

Best bet is to PM him.

I can see what you are saying, but I don't want everybody say oohh poor miggy must be feeling sickly this week....: My weight is not for sharing on the intrawebs.

I bought a scale that talked to you.
told you your weight, BMI, etc... had to set it up but once that was done it worked.
set the wife up on it, everything was cool.
Went to set myself on it, stepped up on it, it says
One at a time please.

I threw it away and went back to the old scale.

I weighed around 170 just after the holidays...I usually put down 160 or 165 on medical forms. I just won't weigh myself unless I'm curious, otherwise, why in the hell does it matter as long as I'm living healthy-like?

 

[Roman]

It's just a number, so it wouldn't bother me to have it on the webz. But what is the purpose of that? Just curious.

 

[MarieB]

Where or what site is the information posted to?

Wondering the same thing.

Ooh! Can you set it to post the information on here?

I'd post my weight here but I don't want DoWhat to tell me to lay off of the double cheeseburgers.

Meh, he's going to tell you that anyway.

I actually haven't had one in a few years. I just remembered a post that he made to me when I first started posting on here.

Wow. I just found the thread. http://forums.somd.com/chit-chat/34322-hump-day-lunch-thread-17.html#post607271
