My new diet scale
I bought a new scale yesterday to weight food. I’ve never seen one quite like this one before. It is made by Taylor…..model #3803. It has a lot of unique features. It’s called a Commercial Healthy weigh nutritional scale. It has a weight capacity of 6.6 lbs. I bought it at Blain’s Farm and Fleet store.
With this scale you can get specific nutrient values based on the weeight of the actual food. It provides dietary information for 500 foods. It displays quantities specific to the food for:
- fat 2. calorie 3. fiber 4. sodium 5. cholesterol 6. protein 7. carbohydrate 8. glucose
It also has a memory function to set target values. It only takes a nine volt battery. It also shuts off by itself after 2 minutes. With my memory, I love that function. It also has a 3 year warranty.
This thing is going to make dieting more fun. I just have to figure out how to use it. That’s what husbands are for…isn’t it? (grinning) I find the older I get, the more I like gadgets. When I was younger and raising kids, I couldn’t afford the luxury of such items. I’m making up for that now.

I need to get a scale for when I lose my meetings. I need a new scale.
I found it was easier for me to lose weighing in once a week once I had goaled then I could handle more and now weigh in twice a week.
I will then add more weigh in days when I get my scale.
The scale can add up to six pounds heavier if you weigh at different times of the day.
