Several nights ago, I purchased my very first scale! It's a fancy one, at that. I bought the Ozeri Touch 440 lb digital bath scale; of course I took advantage of my Amazon Prime membership. So what's so can this scale do? It can measure body fat percentage, hydration levels, muscle mass, bone index, and the most basic of all scale measurements, weight.
I didn't know whether I could have been more excited about a scale than the manual scale at the doctor's with the sliding weights during an annual checkup, but the anticipation for this digital scale was certainly close.
On to what you have been thinking: What are my measurements? Here you go!
That's 145.0 lbs, 9.6% Fat, 64.9% H2O, 44.2% muscle, 6.6 lbs bone
You must be thinking I'm out of shape! But I didn't tell you is that these measurements were taken directly after consuming my Whopper Wednesday meal plus a rodeo burger...
My measurements a few hours before the fast food:
142.6 lbs, 8.8% Fat, 65.4% H2O, 45.9% muscle, 6.8 lbs bone
Note: Don't immediately use a glass scale that has been sitting outside in 15 degree weather for hours after being delivered. Cold feet, literally.
