 Can anyone recommend a good kitchen scale?  I am not convinced mine is accurate and I don't want to be sabotaging myself.  Preferably a digital one.  It would be great if I could put a bowl or something on it and then reset it to 0 before I put food in the bowl.  

Thanks in advance!!!

Mine is a Starfrit with glass top. I bought mine at Canadian Tire for about $30, but it's available all over the place. I use it several times a day. It will give tare weight (zero with bowl on) so is extra helpful for things like the tiny freezer meals I make myself.
I pop on a 1/2 cup freezer container, tap the button, add 1.5 oz of whatever type of chicken, then fill the rest of the container with veg and whatever the sauce is that I'm using. 1/2 cup is pretty much perfect for me, and I have in the freezer several each of curry, stew, butter chicken etc. It only takes about 2 minutes in the microwave to have a tasty, portion perfect lunch for myself, so I'm less tempted to eat off plan.

 I used a sharper image one I got from Bed, BAth, & Betond up until last week when it bit the big one.  Now I have a larger one from OXO I got at target with an 11 lb capacity.  I do a lot of baking with it too so I wanted a bigger one.

I got a "postal" scale from the office supply store.  Cheaper than the "Kitchen" ones.  Very accurate and you can zero out any container on it. 
I had a couple WW ones and love this digital one.
