    Body fat scales?

    What is the best and most accurate body fat scale. I have a tanita floor scale but I here it is not accurate. Are their any scales that are under 30 dollars that you guys have history using. Thanks

    None. They are all pretty much useless.

    I have a tanita, and have found it to be fairly accurate compared to other electronic scales, and calipers.

    However, it wasnt < $30

    hmm...i came across these websites when i googled places to get my bf% tested in my city:

    http://www.bodycomp.ca (look @ "sample scans", "images", & "videos").


    &


    http://edu-fit.ca/results.php


    i got weighed @ the doctor's office this morning. i haven't weighed myself since i was lean (148...but didn't look it; at...all...) @ 16 - before i got depressed & ballooned up to - i think - 300'ish. today, it read 185. i don't think i look it; AT ALL. but i had a feeling i was around there, after looking @ some of the other people's pictures on here since i've joined. so, i really wanna find out my bf%. i think i'm 27.5% - from what i've seen on here. the dr. said that i have a lot of loose skin & that once removed, will lower me down considerably & make me look even better; ... DUH! he also went on a b.m.i. tangent as well. he said i looked great - except the loose skin - but was technically on the middle mark between healthy/overweight & that i should lose 5 lbs to get into the healthy range...lol. i want to lose more than that to get to my goal of 17.5%. i wanted to tell him to save his breath. but i didn't.
