I need a recommendation for an accurate digital body scale. It doesn't need wifi or other bells and whistles. It just needs to be accurate and digital. 

I'm at my parents' house unexpectedly this week due to some scary health issues of my dad's, and I'm going to go insane if I keep trying to weigh myself on my mom's super janky and ancient scale.

I'm impatient, so I just went ahead and ordered the cheaper version of what I have at home.  It'll come tomorrow.  

I think that if there wasn't a scale in the bathroom at all, I'd be fine.  But the fact that there is one there means I can't control the urge to stand on it.  :P

Hey Gwen. I can totally relate to that. Those scales are something else. It's like the chocolate candy bar that sits in the fridge and constantly calling you, lol. My hubby wants to buy me a scale and I don't want it. I know I will be going crazy over it.

I am traveling for six weeks and I ordered a mini-scale to carry with me. I love it. I could not not weigh daily. I need the accountability. Hope your dad improves.

No advice on scales (sounds like you got that figured out) but I just wanted to send some positive vibes for your dad and hope that his health improves!

I love my Aria scale.  It syncs with everything -- myfitness pal / fit bit etc.  

When I am not home, I do not weigh.  It is hard, but I can't handle the different scales and what they say.

I've got a Withings Smart Body Analyzer scale at home which is similar to the Aria (the Aria didn't exist when I got the scale).  I ended up getting the cheaper model of the one I have for my parents' house.  I figure it should weigh similarly to the one I have at home and I'm certainly at my parents' place often enough that it'll be useful more than just this week :)
