Facts You Should Know
Your Weight Watchers®’ scale is a precise measuring instrument that is most accurate when weighing a stationary object. To ensure the most accurate readings, always try to stand on the same area of the scale platform and DO NOT MOVE.Should the weight on the scale exceed the scale’s capacity, you may see an error message “ERR”.Electronic sensors are sensitive. Be careful not to drop or jar the scale. Place it gently onto the floor surface, and store it where it will be protected from impact. The scale is an electronic instrument and should never be submerged in water. Clean with a damp cloth and/or glass cleaner.In the unlikely event that the scale batteries malfunction and need to be replaced, lift the battery cover on the bottom of the scale and replace the old batteries with two new 3V Lithium batteries (CR2032). Insert both batteries with the “+” side up, one on top of the other.Do not attempt to open the scale or remove any components. Servicing should be done by qualified technicians only.See warranty information below.Important Information Concerning Weight ManagementYour scale is the best tool for monitoring weight. While not the only measure of weight loss, scales are the most popular method used to gauge weight-loss success. A scale measures the sum of your total body weight, which includes bone, muscle, fat, and water.Bodyweight fluctuates during the day, and from day to day, depending on a variety of factors.
- Salt and carbohydrate intake can affect the body’s water retention.
- A large meal adds weight and can cause water retention.
- Dehydration from exercise, illness or low fluid intake can result in weight loss.
- Muscle is also a factor. Heavy-duty resistance training can build muscle, which can affect weight.
- The menstrual cycle can cause temporary weight gains and losses.
When You’re Losing WeightIt’s important not to put too much stock in the exact number on the scale, because it can and will vary. This is especially true when you’re dieting. Small weight gains andlosses are common as your body adjusts to fewer calories and more exercise.Your scale is a valuable tool when used to track weight over a period of weeks and months. Be aware that different scales often give different results. The scale at yourdoctor’s office may show one weight and your scale at home another.So don’t get too caught up with a single number.Don’t Overdo It!A surefire way to get overly concerned with your weight is to weigh yourself too often.Weigh yourself no more than once a week when you’re dieting. Though it’s hard to stick to this pattern, it’s the best way to prevent unnecessary concern with normal weight fluctuations, which are unrelated to your weight-loss efforts. Regardless of your weighing habits, it’s important that you’re consistent.Here are 5 rules for effectively monitoring your weight – weigh yourself:
- Once a week, on the same day of the week
- At the same time of day
- In the same place
- Wearing the same clothes
- Using the same scale
To keep track of your weight, record only one number for the week. This will give you a clear picture of any trend your weight is following.When You’re Maintaining WeightFluctuations in day-to-day weight tend to be smaller when weight is stable, so a more frequent weigh-in pattern is helpful.To maintain a stable weight:
- Weigh yourself more often than once a week.
- Use the “5-pound rule” – research shows that people who keep weight within a 5-pound range are more likely to maintain healthy body weight over the long term.
While a scale can be a useful tool on your weight-loss journey, it’s not in and of itself a program for losing weight. Studies show that people lose three times more weight on Weight Watchers than they do on their own*.Come to a meeting and learn from us the best way to lose and maintain weight.Call 1-800-651-6000 or go to WeightWatchers.com to find a meeting near you.
