How much of your total weight is water or fat? Find out!

I have always hated the scale and weighing myself. I recall a time when I started lifting weights, exercising, watching what I ate. My clothes would get bigger on me, I'd begin feeling great, but as soon as I stepped on a scale? Disappointment. My clothes were bigger, but my scale would tell me I hadn't lost weight. Or worse, that I'd gained a pound or 2. This used to drive me crazy, so I would stop weighing, become a defeatist and give up on weight loss altogether.

Supports up to 440 pounds! Less than $50!

A few weeks ago, my sister introduced me to the Escali. Unlike the conventional scale which gives you your total weight, the Escali gives you your total body weight, fat percentage, and water percentage. This scale allows you to create a profile for yourself and upwards of 8 people, which includes the height and age of each person. The Escali comes with a manual which breaks down what is considered under average, average or over average for the fat & water percentages, and total body weight based on age and height. Simply put, it is much more precise than stepping on a scale and only getting your total weight. AND this scale supports up to 440lbs. The best news is, the scale costs less than $50!

After my first weigh-in, the Escali confirmed my suspicions--I am majorly dehydrated. A normal water percentage for my age range is between 37-47%. I was well below what is considered average. I now know how much of my body is actually fat, and when I begin to lift weights again, I'll know exactly how much fat I'm losing. Most importantly, this scale will help me keep track of how hydrated my body is. An amazing value for under $50. Highly recommended.
