A member asked:
Which is a better scale to use for accurate results? digital or dial?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Scale measurement : If you want to know weight changes to the 10ths of pounds then digital is going to be the best. I generally just have patients use the scales as guidelines for trending, because it is the loss overtime, not at one specific moment that you want.
