As I begin this momentous weight loss journey, I knew I wanted a really good scale to help keep me on track. I did a lot of research to see what was out there. I wanted something that would hold up well and would track my weight.
The Fitbit Aria is a beautiful scale that comes in white or black. It’s very sleek, and I don’t mind it sitting out in the open in my bathroom. I bought the black one on Amazon for about $125. I already had a Fitbit account and app from when I had a Fitbit Force. Once you link your Aria to your account, you can setup your users. You can have up to 8 specific users for the scale. Anyone can use the scale and it will just show up as a “guest,” but those users you set up will be recognized by the scale. The scale will track your weight and loss/gain through both the app and online as long as you have it set up on a wireless account.
The Aria does a good job of remembering us. We only set up two users, but it works well for us. The Aria also tracks body fat percentage, but I’m kind of up in the air on how accurate I think that part of it is. The reviews are also mixed on that point. I’m not terribly worried about that though. My biggest interest is that it tracks my weight, my loss, and is easy to use. I don’t have to write down my weight--it automatically uploads everything for me.
The website allows you to see your weight on charts, which is nice. You can also earn badges and connect with friends if you are brave enough to share!
I don’t know if the Fitbit Aria is the best wifi scale on the market, but I really like it. It’s attractive, and it does exactly what I need it to do.
