Basics: Buy A Scale


"That which is measured, improves."

If you don't already have a scale, buy one today: place it in your bathroom on a level, flat floor and weigh yourself every morning immediately after waking up.

Track your weight. Write it down: Print this weight log and keep it near the scale.

Buy a scale (or two) here.


Avoid high-design glass see-through or electronic scales that claim to calculate BMI (Body Mass Index). They are notoriously inaccurate and unreliable.
