Weighing my food with the Perfect Portion Scale (plus a FREE one for one of you)
As discussed in this and this post, I have been asked to test out a few items to help me with my new goals for this year and have also been provided with (you too!) the advice of a personal trainer/dietician, found here. I will be blogging all about it on ‘Make It and Love It’ for the next several weeks. (All related posts can be found here.) Join with me and healthy up that body of yours too! In fact, why not take the pledge to live a healthier lifestyle right now!

I think the hardest thing about eating healthier is figuring out portions and calorie consumption, etc. Ugh. It’s such a pain.However, if you’re really trying to monitor what you’re eating and/or count up calories, carbs, cholesterol, sodium, sugars, etc. you just have to plow through it until you get better at recognizing how much stuff is in everything.
Okay, okay…we’ve gotta put forth more effort. Check.
Do you want to see the coolest little tool that’s going to save you a lot of time? Something that will give you accuracy so that you’re not overeating without knowing it, then getting frustrated with your body for not changing?
Best Buy sent me the Perfect Portions – Food Scale with Nutritional Calculator that instantly tells me exactly what’s in my portion of food, just like looking at the nutrition label on a box of food from the store. Pretty dang cool. I no longer have to figure everything out. This little beauty does all the calculations for me.
You know how it’s annoying to figure out, “Hmmmmm, okay, 1 serving of chicken is my fist size, but this is probably one and a half fists. So, uh?” Or is this a “small” sized apple or a “medium” sized one? Who knows! Grrrrr. This scale cuts out all that guesswork. It weighs it, calculates it, then tells me what I need to know. It even has a feature to keep a running total of stats for the day. Cool.
The Perfect Portions Scale has about 2,000 food items stored in its memory, but it also allows for an additional 99 food entries. I can add and save unusual foods I may have in my diet and then recall them at any time. Again, cool.
So here’s how it works. You look up your food item in the food code book (which is plastic coated and very well organized) and find the code for what you’re going to eat. I wanted almonds, which are code 0631. So I entered that code into the scale.
Then I plopped my almonds right on top and watched my info come up instantly. If you can see, the calories pop up as 121. If I want less, I can just take off one almond at a time until I get down to the calories I want. Then I can scoop them off and gobble them up. Easy.
Here’s a pear that I placed down on the scale, happy to know I didn’t have to figure out the calories by labeling it a “medium” or “small” pear. The scale figured out exactly how many calories, carbs, sugars, etc are in that one little pear. Ooooh, I love it!
So, even though the top of the scale is glass and really easy to clean, you can’t really plop liquid stuff right down on top, like yogurt, for example. So you can place a bowl down first, ‘auto tare’ the scale (balance it out at zero) by pressing ZERO, and then plug in the number for your item. Yogurt is 0821.
†
Then you add your yogurt in by the scoopful and watch as the nutrition facts change instantly with each scoop. Ooooops, too much yogurt? Just scoop a little back out and put it back in the yogurt container for another day. Ahhhhh, perfectly portioned.
Okay, now seriously, how many times have you just “guessed” how much you were eating or what the calculations were? No more of that for me. You know it’s hard to count out exactly how many crackers/chips/pretzels from a bag by following the serving size number on a food package. They’re always broken or different sizes. I don’t have to count anymore or puzzle piece chip bits back together to equal one chip. Or even do the math if I just want to add 10 more calories to my portion.
This scale has earned a permanent spot right on my counter. You could say we’re friends now.
Would you like to win a Perfect Portions – Food Scale with Nutritional Calculator of your very own?

That scale is A.MAZ.ING!!!
I’ve love a portion scale..for just that reason, no more guessing. I’m sick of overestimating or more so underestimating the portion size that I’m eating. This would sure help with the guess work.
My friends 3 year old was just diagnose with Type 1 Diabetes. I would give this to her to help on her journey.
I think this scale just looks fun! It would be great to be more aware of what I eat as well.
WOW! I always try to keep track of what I’m eating, but I know I’m off just a little every time! This would be great (and make me have fun in the process!)
I would love to win this scale to help get me back into shape post-baby. I don’t like dieting because there is so much guess work that goes into portions and what not. Guess no more!
I would love one of these.
o.m.g I want this sooo bad! I would love to have it because I currently am on WW and this would be GREAT!
This scale would make eating the right portions so much easier! You are right when you say it is hard to know what size fruit you are eating and how many calories it is! Hope I win!!! :)
Wow! That scale really is impressive! I would love it to help me get rid of my baby weight come June!!
I have osteoporosis, reactive rheumatoid arthritis and lupus and need to get into my ideal weight range to better control and live with these maladies. This scale would be an awesome way to get a handle on where I’m overestimating the food portions I eat. (The website I listed above is just getting going with hopes of becoming more).
This is pretty darn cool! It would be great to know exactly how much I was eating. i love food too much!
Having this scale would really teach me the “proper” portion size for different food items. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love love love one of these- I know that I have been off on my calorie counting but I didn’t know how to be better at it!
I would love it because I am in the kitchen all of the time… baking cooking. It would be nice to know, when I taste test or sneak a bite, how much is really in those bites.
This scale would be so helpful in calculating my portions quickly. Right now I am using an ancient WW scale my father-in-law gave me. It’s old school metal with a small plastic dish on top! I love how the newer electronic scales enter all the nutritional information as well!
Just started back on “the program” to lose the last few pounds of baby weight. This scale would sure help keep track of calories instead of the rough estimates ive been using!
That is really neat. Now that my baby is six months old I’m ready to get serious about weight loss, so this would be a wonderful tool.
My boyfriend has type 1 diabetes, and this scale would let us accurately calculate his carbs/sugars. It would also be great for baking with recipes that measure by weight. Yum!
I would love having this scale! My husband was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 3 years ago. This would help a ton with counting carbs and with regulating portions. Thanks for the opportunity!
I’d love one of these. It’s always a hassle trying to eyeball exactly how much of something I am eating. When I keep my food journal I kind of have to guess and I often end up trying to err on the side of caution which sometimes keeps me from eating the amount I should be eating because I am worried about going over calories.
Oh man, I would love to have this! I have 4 kids 5 and under, with a set of twins turning 1 in February…needless to say I don’t have a ton of time to sit and figure out everything I’m eating!
Ugh. The food scale that I have (and have been using for every meal for a while now) is just a plain old scale. I have to look up calorie content online, then weigh, then multiply. None of this is actually *difficult*, but it sure is a pain in the patootie when I’m STARVING and just want to eat my food! ;o) I do love using a scale, though, because it trains me to recognize an *actual* serving size, and there is hope that some day in the future I’ll just automatically know a proper serving size by looking at food and I can let my scale rest!
Oh my goodness, that is cool!!! I know my diet is a bit part of my failure at being in shape and even when I’m trying to be smart I know I make stupid decisions. I think it’d be so fun to have this scale to keep me accountable. Plus I’m sure my husband would think its pretty cool too.
That scale is awesome! It feels like so much of our produce is bigger than a serving and it would be nice to acurately watch what I am eating.
I’d love to win this! I’m always afraid I’m not getting enough servings of fruits/veggies/protein–but I know my idea of what the right portion size is completely wrong–so in reality, I could possibly be getting the right amount. This scale takes away all the guesswork! PERFECT!

This scale would help a lot. My husband and I are trying to shed a few “winter ” pounds. Thanks for the chance at winning.
What an incredible scale! Knowing what you are eating is a huge hurdle.
What a cool tool! This would make my diet plans so much easier. Thanks for sharing.
This would help me lose my goal of 10 pounds!
I’d love this scale because my husband tracks his calories and I’m in charge of making his lunch in the morning. I always end up guessing on the actual calories when I add fruit and nuts to his lunch. And it probably wouldn’t hurt if I had a more accurate idea of how much I’m eating! I like that it has the whole nutrition label right on the scale!
I would love this! I am currently on a quest to loose 60lbs by july 14th, (you can read about it here: http://wifeyknowsbest.tumblr.com/post/15240090671/lose60lbs )
Wow! This is incredible and I’ve never seen anything like it. My hubby and I have just started a “for real” trying to cut down and eat better…this would be so helpful.
I am horrible with portion control. This would be great!
I would LOVE this!!! We just started an Eat Smart Move More class at work and this would really help.
my email is samantha.toma.stone@gmail.com
thanks!!!
OMG!! NEAT!! I wouls love this because i just had a baby and it will help me lose the weight i have packed on!!
I’d love this scale!! I am a college student with a tight budget and a busy schedule. Having this scale would help me maintain portion control (which is a problem for me) and get back on track of eating healthy (or knowing how many calories I’ve consumed so then I can better evaluate my fitness plan)
p.s- i love your health posts!
We’re trying to make healthier choices in our home, but we struggle with portions. I think our ideas about portions sizes are a little bit skewed. This scale would help us a lot.
I’d love to have the help of this scale as a tool for living healthy!
I would love to win this! I need some portion control in my life :)
I have a small kitchen scale already that I use all the time, but it’s nothing like this! I want!
No more guessing?! Sign me up. Thanks for the giveaway.
twelve30(at)gmail(dot)com
I love it! I would sure be helpful knowing how much is enough.
I would LOVE this! I had a baby 5 months ago and its about time I start eating right because nursing isn’t going to last forever and I need to be able to get this baby weight off!!!
After having a baby recently, I can use all the help I can get to lose those extra pounds!! I would love one of these for that purpose!
sorry, not sure what it means to leave a comment in response to “the sweepstakes prompt on this post”? is there a certain place we’re supposed to leave comments (like with the silhouette contest) or is this the right place?
if so, i would love to win one of these! i always try calorie counting to just let it slide because it’s too many steps weighing my food, and then trying to figure out the nutritional info afterward. i love this combines it!
I would love this!
I would love one of these, I’ve just on a 100+lb weight loss journey and this would be VERY helpful.
I would LOVE this scale as it would help me in my weight loss journey!! Thanks!
I would love one of these to help with portion control as I am working on getting healthy this year. The guessing game is the hardest part!
I have started counting calories again to lose weight from my second baby. It is so difficult to know what is what, and take the time to do it, not to mention the extra dishes I have to do just to measure everything out. This would help out immensely!
It would be so nice to stop guessing how much I’m eating when I count calories. I would love to win this!
OMG! I’ve just had a beautiful baby girl and I still have 25 pounds to loose. This would be sooo helpful! I hope I win!
Wow! This sounds life a nifty product. I’d love to try it out – I think it could really help me control portions.
I would love to win this scale! It would be much more convenient than the website I currently use. I have to “guess” at portion sizes and plus it in to a website. Who has time to plug things in to a computer while they are cooking?! This would be much more convenient!
I have done tons of healthy eating research because I believe wholeheartedly in the healthy lifestyle over the diet approach. I am really active with triathlons and am running my 3rd marathon on Sunday, so one could consider me “fit”. Unfortunately, I really struggle with portion control and mindless eating. I’ve been wanting a portion/calorie scale for a long time but having just graduated nursing school, it’s not really in my budget. So I’d would love this particular portion scale because it seems really straightforward and does the “thinking” part for you. I’m pinning this to my wish list :-)
I have a ten dollar scale and it works but that is pretty darn neat. I like how accurate it is with the information that labels give us, if they are accurate :)
What an Awesome looking scale! I myself am trying to eat more healthy, and this would be great to have on hand :)
I’d love it! It’s beautiful :)
I’d really like one of these.
I have been wanting one of these! I hate it when a recipe calls for a weighed amount of something and I have no clue. I never thought of it for portion control, though!
I love it! No more guessing and estimating!
Any extra help I can get with tracking my food would be awesome!!
Wow. I’ve never been interested in counting calories because of all the effort required and the pain of having to try to pick the right description for things. But that thing sounds awesome! I might be convinced to try it with one of those scales.
I need this, as I always have big fist and palms! My food is never correct and my scale just plain sucks!
I tweeted about this super, awesome giveaway

This is so cool!
I’d love a perfect portions scale! I’m working off my last few pounds to goal weight and portion sizing has been one of the biggest pains in becoming healthier!
That is quite the gadget! It would make eating the right portions so easy.
I would love this scale! I have food allergies and have a really hard time making sure I’m getting the right nutrients (especially protein) so this scale would be awesome for my husband and I!
I have an old school food scale, which is nice. But this would be awesome, to be able to have all of the nutrition information right there is awesome!! Thanks!!
My brother in law found out he has diabetes this last year. I would totally give this to him to help him with his carb counts!
Just had my first baby and I’m trying to get rid of all the baby weight. This would really help me make things easier to figure out what I was eating and how many calories and how I can efficiently cut back!
What a great idea ! Thank you for the giveaway!
This would be AMAZING!!! This would help with my carb counts!!
I would LOOOOVE this! And could totally use it every day! I never even knew something like this existed!
In my opinion, the biggest hassle in trying to lose weight is counting calories. I did this for about a month straight on my own using a scale and the internet to translate the weight into calories. It was so time consuming that I stopped doing it altogether. Who has time for all of that? Now THIS is using your time wisely!
I would love to win this to help me get to my goal weight. I am 35 lbs down and have another 30 to go :)
What a great invention! I would love this handy tool to help me lose that weight.
That gizmo sounds crazy amazing! I’ve never been able to figure out how many calories are in the portion I’m eating, so I’d love it. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would use it to lower my caloric intake and increase my son’s (who is seriously underweight). What a cool idea.
I have wanted a kitchen scale for a while and this one would be great!
We have the worst time figuring out calories. This would be so perfect!
I am trying to eat better and watch my calorie intake during my pregnancy keep my sugar and salt intake down a little, but I am very lazy and hate counting calories, this scale looks like it might actually make counting calories fun!!
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SCALE!!! I have to get some of this baby weight off and this would be a very helpful tool… now just if it came with a treadmill too… I would be set! I have my finger’s crossed. Thank you!!!
knowing what your eating is the best way to stay on track! I would LOVE that!!
This would be great for so many foods! I am watching my cholesterol, so I know this would be helpful.
Wow that thing is awesome! Who wouldn’t love it?
This would be great to help me keep on my track with my training. quinnysmom at gmail dot com
I would love this! I have a food scale, but rarely use it because of all the confusion you mentioned above! This would be amazing!
I have seen these and am dying for one!!! My family would LOVE this!!!
I would love this scale to take the guesswork out of portion control….portion sizes always mess me up! :o)
I hope I win because I am counting calories, and this would make life so much easier!
As a Mommy on the run, this would cut down on taking the time to measure! Also as a mommy this would help make balanced portions for my whole family.
i’m trying to get rid of my baby weight, and always get tired of figuring out the calories f stuff! this would be great!
that scale would be an amazing tool to help in my weight loss journey
My husband was recently in the hospital for chest pains, This would be AMAZING to have to help both of us eat healthier.
I love it! I’m the same way always just guessing my portions, this would help out so much, even while doing weight watchers.
I am trying to make it my mission for the year to be healthier, and this little gadget would really help!
This scale is amazing! It would be so useful in managing my type 2 diabetes. I love technology :)
This would be fantastic for me to win because my husband was recently in the hospital for chest pains and i am constantly yelling at him to watch his portion sizes.
I would love one of these scales. I want to educate my children on how important it is to portion control. I think if they learn now they can be healthy adults.
I would LOVE to win this scale! My husband and I are really trying not so much to loose weight (we need to) but making our focus on just living healthier lifestyles/being better examples for our kids. We had a conversation just last night on portion size and portion control. This would make figuring all of that out so much simpler!! It would be an item that got daily use in my home!!
I would love this because I know I over eat!!! And I too am trying to get back in shape after another baby.
this would help me be a smaller portion with the portion controll yayayyyyyyyyyyy that would be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would sooo LOVE one these. I have been working on getting fit, its my new years resolution. So far I have lost some weight and this would be the perfect thing to keep me going!
That’s fantastic!
That is an amazing scale! Portion control is so important and this would make it so much easier!
I have been try to be on diet and this machine will surely help me keep a tab on my calories!
I would love a scale because I need a “friend” that will do all the work for me. I really would like to use it too loose the last bit of my baby weight…I have 5 kids! :)
We count calories manually and it is such a pain. This would really help us keep track, and hopefully help me loose the last of the baby weight!!
Oh, please, please, please!! I know that keeping track of what I eat is the best way for me to lose weight. But with four little ones to keep up with, I thought it was impossible. I’m so excited to learn that this scale exists, and I REALLY want to win it!
I would love this!! I just started a new training program that requires me to weigh all of my food. This would help out a lot!
I’ve tried to keep a food diary on my phone app, but when it asks for an amount consumed I’m always uncertain! This scale would keep me better on track and more exact with my portions! Thanks!
I blogged about it: http://gurleys.blogspot.com/2012/01/i-want-it.html
Would love to have one of these for calorie counting purposes. I’m always guessing!! You make it look so easy to use this scale :)
Here is the link where I shared it on my blog!!
http://callmethefool.blogspot.com/2012/01/coolest-scale-you-can-win.html
That scale looks amazing. I’m training for a a marathon and it would extremely helpful to get the right amount protein I need everyday!
I hope your blog post is wrong and this didn’t end yesterday :)
I would love using this scale to start not just eating healthier but controlling my portions!
I feel we all super size our meals this would help my family get back to normal size meals
This scale looks like an amazing tool that takes out some of the work that I already am doing and guessing about. I would love this!! Pick me! :)
Having lost 34 lbs so far my goal is to lose another 38. This scale would be so amazing to have since I already weigh my food. Even if I do not win this one. I will be purchasing one soon. Amazing!!!!
I would LOVE to win this scale! I have been counting calories for a while now and it’s so hard to know the portion size. This would be so helpful! Thanks!
I’d love one for our family! My mom is on a special diet for health reasons and really has to watch sugars, calories, starches, etc. very closely. Sign me up! :)
I would love this because it makes figuring out calories simple. I don’t have to feel like I’m doing complex math problems every time I want to have a meal or even a snack. :) Plus, it doesn’t just tell you the calorie content it figures out the other nutrition information too!
I’d love to win it because I’m pregnant and trying to eat healthy, well-balanced meals!
I’d love one so I can see just how much junk I’m allowing in my body (and change that!)
I always look up calorie amounts online and estimate the amount. This would be so helpful and save so much time.
I would love this! I had WLS last year and need to make protein my number one priority and guessing has been killing me. This would help me so much get in my nutrients for the day!
Oh my goodness! I NEED this! I am currently on weight watchers and I am participating in a biggest looser challenge in my community and this would be fantastic to have! I wouldn’t have to guess the size of my food. FANTASTIC!!!
Oh this would be amazing to have! I don’t eat bad food (that often) but I know my portions are horrible!!!
I’d love to have one so that DH & I can do a better job watching our portions! We have always struggled with that – the scale would be a fabulous tool to have!
That is so cool! I would love to have one of those!
That looks like an awesome scale! Good luck with your healthier journey!
I would love this scale. I have chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia and am trying to lose weight. It is incredibly difficult to lose weight with my health challenges, but I am committed to making positive changes. This scale would make managing my food easier. Because of my health issues, I am not able to work so extras like a food scale are not an option. Being chosen to receive one would be a blessing. Thank you for your blog!
I would love one because I’m always wondering how much of a serving(s) I am eating and this would tell me in an instant!
I can’t believe that there is a scale that does all of this for you! It is AMAZING! This would be amazing to own- no more guessing!
Well, I was going to say how I had weight loss surgery and this would really help me keep track of my protein! But, Marisa beat me to it! :) Anyway, I would love this to help keep track of what I’m eating. Even with WLS, you still have to “work at it!” This seems like a really good tool to make that a bit easier.
This looks awesome! I always try to use calorie counting for weight loss, but I’m never able to be very accurate. This would really help! Thanks for hosting a great giveaway.
I’m heavier than I’ve ever been, and I would love something like this to help me better monitor my diet.
I tweeted! https://twitter.com/#!/thejpearson/status/162231950000656385
I would LOVE this! It would help me so much in keeping track of everything!!!
I’ve been using a calorie counter on my phone, but I guess in the sizes all the time. This would help a lot.
I would love to win because I am so stinkin’ sick of counting out every little thing.
I would love to have this scale!! I’ve lost about 6 lbs. since the first of the year but this scale would help me SO much with the guesswork of portion size and calorie counting!
This would be wonderful to have in my quest of losing 40 lbs. Thanks!
Yes please! My husband and I are both trying to loose a little weight and get back in shape and this would help a ton.
OMGosh. I want one of these!
I am currently using the bodybugg system which measures calories in and out. Unfortunately, I have to enter all my food manually which means saving every label and then guessing the weight of the portion i ate! I need this! pick me, pick me!
I’d love to win this (super awesome!) scale because it would be so helpful when it comes to tracking food nutrition during the day. I started eating a lo-carb diet at the end of last year for a healthier lifestyle and to help encourage my father who also started lo-carb eating to help control/correct some health issues. The Perfect Portions scale looks like it would be enormously helpful and easy to use.
Portion control is my biggest enemy. Growing up I never really had to worry about what I ate (I was always told that I could eat what I wanted, as much as I wanted). But now as I’m getting older, I realize I can’t do that. I’m fairly active, so I know that my food consumption is holding me back. I need an assistant to help me realize what are in the foods that I’m eating and how much of them I should eat.
I would love this! I am trying to get healthier, but I need some help. This would be a big help.
I would love it to get me started on my road back to a healthier life. Counting calories can be tough and time consuming and this would make it a breeze!
The scale is such a great tool….it would be a great aid to getting healthy!
Me,me,me. Oh, sorry. I would like to win this. What a great device.
I would live this scale. I’ve always struggled with portion control, and hate trying to figure out what I should eat and how much. This could be super helpful.
I would love to have one of these! Taking the guess work out of it would be awesome.
I am in a clinical trial right now that requires me to log EVERYTHING that I eat and all the information. This would make life so much easier and give me back a few moments in my schedule!
I would love to be able to accurately weigh my portions!
I’m a Health Education major and the thing I always push the most is portion size! This scale looks amazing because it’s hard to guess what a healthy portion is!
It would be great to be sure about my kids’ nutrition too!
I need this so I quit fooling myself that I’m not eating as much as I really am!
This would be great for helping me keep track of portion sizes!
I would love one of these! I asked for a scale for Christmas, but I didn’t get one. :(
i am trying so hard to watch calories and my husband has poked fun at me for counting out my cheez its or such. this is awesome!! and i wouldn’t have to multiply by fractions :)
Love that scale! So useful. I am terrible at grabbing a handful and assuming it’s a 1/4 cup or whatever the serving is. I should start paying better attention, for sure :)
I love this! We are trying to improve our health and this would make it soo much easier!! No more guess-timating!
How cool is that!! It would be so nice to have to take guesswork out of the process!
I would love one of these scales. I never know how much is a serving.
wow, that is really cool. i spend a lot of meal planning time figuring calories and portion sizes, so this would save me so many precious minutes!
I am a total Foodie and my biggest challenge I have is portion control. My mom is the same way and I see myself heading in the same direction with my weight increasing steadily as the years go by. With this scale, I could really keep my portions in check.
This would make portion control so much easier. I’m a horrible guesser when it come to what I really ate.
Im going to have a baby in two months. Between trying to eat healthy now, and then while nursing, this would be amazing!
I would love this because I’ve been gaining weight since I stopped breastfeeding (well, I still nurse once a day, but not like before). It’s like I don’t know what a normal portion is anymore! I’m starting to get more active, but this would really help me relearn how to eat.
I would love to win this so I can help my husband in his weight loss journey and also to help me in this pregnancy during and after!
Yes! I would like to win one of these. It looks SO much easier than guessing or having to do a ton of calculations to figure out the nutritional info of everything we’re eating.
I would love one of these scales because with two little children I have little time (or focus!) to measure out my food but I think it would be HUGE help towards my weight loss and health goals.
I have Insulin resistance and in order to keep my weight under control, I have to balance my carbs and proteins. it’s always a guessing game and this would make it soooooo much easier!
Oh- I would sooooo love this! My hubby and I are trying to do better with our eating habits and the scale we have just doesn’t cut it. It seriously gives a different measurement every time you try it. This would be so wonderful!

I would love this! I have been weighing and calculating my food for lamost a year now (almost 100lbs lost too!) and this would really simplify it!
Trying to lose weight and calorie count..this would be so helpful!
I use a food scale religiously – I just can’t be trusted to eye-ball it. I would love to replace my archaic food scale l with this cool sleek bells and whistle one!
I want one – this looks like a must have :)
I would love to win this so that we can get a better picture of our portion sizes. The scale we currently use is not accurate!!
I would use it to repeatedly portion my plate perfectly and practically! Precisely.
I would love this for exactly the reason you mentioned, to take the guess work out of portion sizes. Thanks for the chance to win!
I would LOVE to WIN the scale because I’m getting married on July 7, and I LOVE TO EAT!!! my fiance and I have a really hard time trying to choose what’s good or not. And the scale I’m pretty sure will help us be on track and in awesome shape for our BIG DAY !!!
Just had baby #3 and #4 back to back (13 mo. apart). Didn’t lose the weight from baby #3 before having #4 so I have a ways to go and managing calories and a home with 4 kids is tough. Would love to have a scale like this to help!
I am on Medifast right now trying to get my weight in check. That tool would be indispensible while counting calories and measuring my “Lean and Green”!! Fabulous!
This would be so awesome! I had a baby recently, and I find myself eating WAY too much all the time, probably b/c I’m used to eating more lol. It would be nice to know portion sizes
Iwould love to have this scale because it would help me get back on track to losing my “baby weight”!
I NEED this scale! I have been trying for the last 3 weeks to lose weight but haven’t had much success. I think food portions are my problem. I have a hard time gauging food portions and this scale would be perfect!
oh wow – that is so cool! so much neater than the little springy scale i have right now. it isn’t accurate and i end up ignoring it and leaving it on top of the fridge.
this would be so great!! i struggle with portion control big time and this would totally help me. i’d say i have baby weight, but my baby is 9 years old. (i had 4 kids in less than 5 years). no excuses, but i’m really struggling to lose weight.
HELP ME!! :)
Seriously, the coolest food SCALE ever!
I would love to not *guess* anymore! I have lost 19 lbs so far and would like to lose another 40, and this scale could help me tremendously!
Wow….it is really cool! I retired in May and have finally been able to get serious about dieting. This would be helpful!
We use a food scale at home, but it’s very small and is just a simple scale. Having one that’s this size (it looks like you could actually read it with a plate on it!) and with all the info would be sublime. It takes forever for us to go online to look up serving sizes and other nutrition information – this would be spectacular!
About to have baby # 1 and I am on a mission to get back into shape after! This would be great to help me balance my meals. That always seems to be the hardest part. Thanks!
Brittany
Just had my 2nd baby in 15 months and trying to lose the weight. Help!
I would love to win this! I am working on a new diet and it would help so much.
I need this for my new goal for dieting and cutting back! I need this to figure it for me!!!
I could really use this!! I am still fighting off that baby wait from baby #2 and my biggest problem is portion control!! Pick me!!
Extra Weight was always my issue. But I cannot figure out calories intake in a snap. This would be the best gift I could ever give to myself!
I tweeted! https://twitter.com/#!/BritHenderson7/status/162241432604782592
I’d love a perfect portions scale because my husband and I know what kinds of foods are healthy, but our goal this year is to work on our portions.
I would love this for my husband – he is carrying around too many extra pounds!!
I did a calorie count diet before and i lost about 30 lbs! Since then i’ve been crazy about counting calories!!! This scale would make things so much easier for me!!! I’d loooove to win!!!!!
I’d like to get back on track with my health, and this would be so useful to help me with that!
Is this still open? It says the sweepstakes is open 1/18-1/24, but it was posted on the 25th. Hmm. Hope it is! I would love to win this because I need to work on portion control. I joined the Y and have been working out a lot, but I know that my eating habits need to be reigned in.
I would love this scale – it looks like the easiest to use!! I could reallllllly use one!!! :)
I recently started a new exercise program that really emphasizes good nutrition and healthy eating habits. I don’t know a lot about nutrition and would love some help figuring out how to lose the pounds with the help of food. This would be great to help me out with that!
I’m currently on WW so this would make counting points SO much easier! Awesome scale!
I am due to have a baby in March, this would be a great kick start to losing weight!
I would love one of those awesome scales! I tried just a regular ol’food scale this past summer and gave up after about 3 uses because it was just to difficult to figure out all the little details. This scale sounds awesome and would make life so much easier!
I am struggling with myself & my weight for what seems forever, this would be perfect
My husband’s been asking for one of these for a year now. It’d be awesome to win one! :)
I would love this for my snacks… I tend to eat more than I think I do!
I have been making changes and watching what I eat since September of 2011. I have lost 30 pounds and I need to lose around 80 more. Keeping track and knowing that you have the right nutritional information is very important. However, exercise has to fit into the weight loss mix somewhere. Take one day at a time and keep on moving in the right direction especially after a bad food choice day.
This scale would make having the correct nutritional information super easy, one less thing to struggle with is always a great addition to any healthy way of eating!
I am terrible at portion control! I think that’s the key.
WOW!!! This is so cool!!! I would love to win. My husband would be obsessed with it!!:) Thanks for offering.
This sounds so cool!
I would LOVE this scale as my own child! I spend so much time counting calories and such, and this would be SO much easier! Fingers crossed I win it!
omg! I need this scale I have recently started to get back on the health track and this scale would help me to see exactly what i am eating and how much fat and calories are in! love it!!!
This scale looks so amazing! I have recently started calorie counting and would LOVE LOVE to use this in conjunction with calorie counting to help me lose the baby weight! Thanks!!!
I’d love this scale because after baby no. 3, and all the chaos that come with that, I’ve finally committed to getting rid of the baby weight I’v been carrying around for too long! This would be a great tool for this busy mommy!
I have done weight watchers several times using the littlemaual scale I bought from them to measure incredients. I have be meaning to start ww again and keep putting it off since we sold our house of 27 yrs in Oct. and moved Dec. and still are getting settled. When I first started reading your post I thought “Oh! I still have my scale, I don’t have to spend money buying one.” Once I saw your scale, boy oh boy, what joy! Would I like to win it! Just the motivation to get me losing wt. again! Thanks for the opportunity to win the scale.
Linda
greiss@bellsouth.net
OMG.. so cool! This would really help me stay on track. I use a scale now, but its only for ounces and then I have to figure everything else out myself. I would love this!
Opps!!! I forgot to put in my info on post 228. Thanks
No, more guessing, I would love to know what I am eating!!
I would absolutely LOVE this! Being pregnant, it’s easy to think “Oh, I need to add 300 calories to my diet” But that is NOT a good excuse for me. I feel like I definitely need this AWESOME gadget :)
I am the WORST at portion/calorie control, and my husband is a close second (ok, we’re even). This would be so helpful at keeping the goals we have set for ourselves. Thank you!!!
Started a class with a personal trainer once a week at the rec center. Last week we discussed measuring and recording what we eat–this would make it so much easier!
Love this…very useful!! I’m constantly guestimating!
You have no idea how much I absolutely have to get one of these little gadgets! A food scale is something on my wishlist, but I had no idea that these existed! My biggest problem is portions and knowing exactly what an actual portion is! I try my best to buy things with labels and easy to understand portions on them, but with fruits and veggies and meats I get flustered! I’ve struggled with trying to lose weight for so long now and though I’m giving it a good effort, I’m having the hardest time! My husband is in the Army and is getting deployed next month, I would love nothing more then for him to come home to a healthier wife! I would absolutely be so grateful to win!
I will soon have a new baby (within three weeks!) and I will be breastfeeding, and when I get a medical release I want to start exercising. It would be fantastic to know how many calories I am intaking so I can make sure I get enough to both fuel my body for feeding my baby AND for exercising! I want to make sure I eat right and can take care of my family!
I would like to win it to measure out the portions I meat I want to freeze when I buy the larger packs.
I’ve already lost 23 lbs watching my portions and running, but can you imagine the ease of calculating those calories?! I’m excited just thinking about it!
I am in a fierce competition with my sister to see who can lose (in only healthy means) the most weight this year. The loser has to do the traveling and I can NOT drive to oregon with three little kids (including a new baby)! This would definitely help my goal!
guessing has been my biggest downfall in my quest to lose weight. that and the inability to stop snacking! ;)
Wow, that is awesome! I would love, love, love to have it!
Would love to know how many calories I am eating in my portions. It is so easy to “think” you are eating a certain amount when In fact it may be way off. Love new gadgets to help me work towards my goal!
I tweeted about it! I just love this so much! https://twitter.com/ChassityO
I would love this. I started losing weight earlier this year and have wanted a great kitchen scale ever since, and THIS would be PERFECT!
I am THE WORST at paying attention to and tracking what I eat. This would be so fun to use, I think it wouldn’t be a problem for me with it!
I would LOVE this scale! I am trying to ww and get frustrated when the serving size says 2 oz, or 4 oz. I have no idea how to tell that. And, like you said, small/large – who knows! I bet it would also help me be more accurate when I bake – which I love to do! Probably why I am needing ww :) haha
This is really neat! My Mom would go nuts for this.
I’ve been using the calorie counter on Sparkpeople, but this scale might be even easier! Thanks for the chance to win!
Yes! i could totally use one of these! Hubby is diabetic and so is my niece so this would definitely come in handy! Thanks for such awesome giveaways!
Kendra
I would love to win this. It looks so easy to use!! Thanks for the giveaway!
This is AMAZING! Just had surgery and was told I gotta get healthy. Need this very much
being diabetic this is awesome! its be so much easier to figure out sugars from this !
Right now I weigh a food & then google it to get the nutrition info. I love this “one stop shopping” so to speak.
I would love to get this for my mom. I’ll be nursing soon so the doctor says no calorie counting, but my mom is always spending time figuring things for weight watchers and this would make it easier :)
To be perfectly honest I wouldn’t want to win this for my self I would LOVE to win it for husband. He’s the one who helps me stay on the healthy road.
I would love to know exactly how much of everything I’m eating. I’ve done lots of exercise and nutritional plans and that’s the part I always hate – having to calculate the nutritional value/calories. This scale would be a great little tool to have.
This would be amazing – no more guessing portion sizes! And it looks cool enough to leave out on the counter, unlike other scales I have tried in the past!
I just tweeted this giveaway!! I’d love to win this scale! I have done a calorie count diet before and lost 30 lbs! Since then I have been crazy about counting calories! This scale would make things much easier for me!!

I have been married for 8 years and i’ve gained 80 pounds. we are very low income and it’s so hard to go buy groceries and NOT buy the potatoes, noodles or rice. after puttig it into a dish, how much can i have?
I really need to lose a few inches off my belly after giving birth in October. My MIL actually patted my belly and said something about now that I’ve had a baby (actually 2 kids) I don’t get to be skinny anymore. My reply was that just because I’d had a baby doesn’t mean I have to be flabby. Now I need to back up my words!
I would love to win this to be able to get the correct portion sizes – I think my family eats way too much, but I don’t know how to tell for sure. :)
This scale looks amazing! No more guessing portion sizes :)
Oh I could certainly use this. My husband and I just started a diet this week and found out how sorely lacking we are in trying to figure out portion sizes. This would truly be a help to both of us.
i have no idea what portion sizes we eat! i would love one of those!
I NEED this…. I’m a dietitian, I think that qualifies the need :)
I would love to win! Nutrition is my next big task to conquer on my weight loss tasks. It just takes so much time to know what I am REALLY eating! Thanks for the chance to win!
I have over 75 pounds to lose…. I.Need.This.Scale!! seriously, nothing else is working for me diet wise. Ugh!
Oh I would love to win one of these because I want to finish losing some baby weight! My son is 4 months old and I don’t want to hang around with this weight forever. This would be so helpful to actually know what correct portions are!
https://twitter.com/#!/JKoutz
I tweeted it :)
Oh Man!!! This would make things so much easier!!! I’ve lost 8lbs since the first of the year.
what a great thing to have! no more guess work. i would love to have this to help me in my weight loss goals. thanks!
I would LOVE the help of this scale to keep me on track for a healthier life so I can be around for my daughters as log as possible!
I would love to win this little scale. I’m doing Weight Watchers and doing okay on it, but my husband rolls his eyes at the weighing and measuring the old fashioned way. Another gadget might just get him on board. This would be a great help! Pick me!
I just tweeted!
https://twitter.com/#!/cherbeartoo/status/162253491857920000
I dont usually sign up for giveaways since i dont trust my luck but this is worth tempting my luck for!! I’m doing weight watchers online but I still have my whole family to cook for. Its impossible to cook only 1 portion of anything and hard to figure out what the portion size should be from the big skillet full. This would be so great for me!!!
That’s amazing! I would love to win one of these. I’m getting married in June, so I’ve been keeping track of calories on a spreadsheet. It’s so hard to calculate calories especially when you’re eating something that isn’t packaged. Unfortunately for me, healthy stuff like veggies don’t have a nutrition sticker on the side, so I tend to opt for things like lean cuisines or smartones, but those suckers have a lot of sodium. Even if I don’t win one I’ll probably look into buying one since my eyes are always bigger than the actual portion…that looks about a cup…
This is awesome! We’ve been trying to get my hubby on track diet-wise, and this AMAZING scale would do wonders! Thanks for hosting yet another great giveaway!
I think I’m a chronic under-estimator or calories and portion size. This would really help me make more realistic food choices.
What an awesome kitchen gadget!! This would make my calorie counting sooo much easier! Have really been working to improve my diet and this tool would help so much!! I hate the guessing, lol, and this would totally take the guessing out of it.
Wow. I definately would love to have one of these.
I eat chips and salsa for break every morning and I always have to guess on how many chips I get. This would be awesome.
WOW I didn’t know anything like this existed! I have been wanting a food scale, but this one blows all of the other scales away! Like you, I have been very frustrated as I have tried to count calories, figure out portions, etc…I honestly get so frustrated most of the time that I give up. I’ve tried different websites that supposedly help me out, but there are still the same issues. But with THIS little beauty I would actually be getting accurate information! I think that with this scale my husband and I would actually successfully get healthier! We would love to win it!!
I think this would be great to have. It’s so hard to estimate! I’m sure I often get more than I should….especially on things I like such as ice cream.
I’m pregnant with my third child and would love to be able to monitor my calorie intake and the nutritional value of the foods I’m eating, so that I’m getting the right amounts of the right foods. What an awesome scale!
AWESOME! I think my husband and I would fight over this scale! I have a toddler and another on the way and i know this scale would come in handy for all of us. We may actually lose weight and life healthier lives! Very cool!
The scale is INCREDIBLE. This would make it so much easier to track nutrition at home! Really visually understanding portion size is such a fantastic help.
Wow, this is awesome! I have such a hard time figuring out portions and this would make counting calories so much easier!
Ooo I like the idea of no guessing. However if I was lucky enough to win I would probably give it to my mom who was just diagnosed with diabetes and is really struggling with keeping track of her food. I may like it to lose a little weight but her health is far more important.
I track all the food eat and this would make my portions so much more accurate! Would love one of these!
Wow! This looks like a spectacular product! It would be exactly the thing I need to stay on track. I am taking the first steps to regaining my health and life and I think this would be a wonderful tool to aid in the process! Wonderful!
My doctor just recently put me on a rx because of my high blood glucose level. He also advised to lose some weight and I can use to lose at Least 40+ lbs. I could totally use this scale to help me achieve this goal. I Don’t want to wind up taking meds for the rest of my life!
I would love this! I’ve been tracking every calorie for about three weeks now (down 4.5lbs!) and could really use this! I try to be careful, but it would be great to have a more accurate count.
This is really useful! It’s hard enough to find it in you to start paying more attention to what you it, and then the results of all that nutrition planning go to waste because you don’t have the proper calculation. I saw it thousands of times
This scale looks amazing. I would love to get better at eating the correct portion size. This would help a ton! Thanks for the chance to win.
What a way to be “accountable!” This would make life with 2 little kids much easier!
I would love to win this! I have been inspired by your blog this year to actually get active again, baby steps but a good beginning. Thanks :)
I just recently joined weight watchers and I have LOST in my first two weeks. YAY! This would be a perfect to weigh out my food so that I’m no longer guessing if I am eating 6 oz of chicken vs. 10 ounces. Right now I’m using my postal scale (I know, I know) and having to convert everything from there on the computer. Please help me simplify this!!! THANKS!
Oh my gosh! I didn’t know they had something like this! I’ve been working really hard the few 5 weeks at losing weight, exercising, and eating healthy. i have been agonizing over calorie counting. It really is the best way for me, but everyone’s idea of how many calories is in one banana is so crazy that i’m either eating too many calories or too little. I desperately need this scale! I’ve lost 15 pounds so far, but I’ve got 50 more to go. I know this would help me so much and make a huge difference in my daily eating habits. Thanks for the chance to win it! I’m crossing my fingers, arms, toes, legs, eyes, and anything else I can cross for good luck!
My husband would LOVE to have this to help him on his quest to stay healthy!!
I would love to win this! It would make my life so much easier when i am trying to count calories that i would want to do it more!
I would love a scale like this so I could really start to understand portion size.
Yes. I would love to win this thing. Me and my wife need something like this.
Wow, I had no idea they had scales this advanced. This would make food tracking so much easier for me!
WOW how cool is this. I am working on getting healthy (losing weight, getting fit) in order to get ready to get pregnant. This would be a big help to me!! Thanks for the chance!
sweeney.susanna@gmail.com
Why yes I would LOVE to win this! It would help me stay on track (I recently lost 33 lbs).
Oh, wow! I’ve never seen anything like that! I’d love to win!
OH! This is what I need! I am trying to loose 15 more pounds and just having such a hard time!
Wow! Perfect portions without all the guessing and figuring! That would be nice.
I would love to win this, I am very active, but have a lot of problems with portion control, this would be great!
I am so terrible with portions and this scale would be so perfect for myself and my husband!
My Doctor recommends I lose weight. HELP! He said he can guarantee a major stroke coming my way if I don’t change my eating habits.
Oh my gosh!! This is amazing!! I would love one of these puppies! This would so help me lose the weight I need to, to not have anymore leg/ankle pain! Thanks! :)
I desperately want to have kids and my weight has really been standing in the way of my hubby and I getting pregnant. I have been getting more active and eating better, but I think this scale would REALLY make is so much easier for me to know what I’m eating and loose weight.
I would love to win this… I am trying very hard to change my lifestyle through better eating exercise etc… I have started to come down with health issues related to my weight and I am getting married in October so I have double the reasons…the most important is my health…. please please pick me
Portion control! love it! This would be so handy when I’m guesstimating what I’m eating. I’d love to the lose the “baby” weight, especially as the baby just turned 5!
I LOVE this! It saves so much time…and with three little kiddos needing my attention…any time saved is appreciated! I would love to win this!! :)
I just received surprising news of high blood pressure at my ‘yearly’ GYN appt. Kinda scary to get that talk of change your diet or else….This scale would help me learn to change my eating habits and get my life back on track!!
So cool! I would love to add this to my arsenal of being healthy!
I would love a scale like this because of the daily total calorie tracker. I’m a busy mom and I just forget to track it all and then my eating gets a little out of control. Such a useful tool!
My biggest problem is portion control. As a busy mom to three kids, this would be SO helpful!
OH.MY.HECK.
THis sounds perfect!!! I would love to win one of these beauties! I’ve been eating healthy for a long time and yes trying to figure out if an apple or orange is small, medium, or large is beyond annoying. This would be amazing to have!
Fingers Crossed! :)
i’m pregnant but DON’T want to be eating for two. would love to have this to make sure i’m not overdoing things. perfect for my husband who is trying to watch what he eats as well. :)
It would be great to have one. I’m a dietitian but sometime I stray off course. Gotta practice what I preach!
I have been struggling with my weight for 3 years, gaining a total of 50 pounds.. I’m 24, shouldn’t have that kind of problem. I counted calories and lost 3 but that is in 4 months….. My protions are the problem here people, this is a answer to my prayer right here!!!
I would love that scale to help me on my road to getting healthy this year…I’ve been putting it off for too long now!
I would love this! I am really trying to get my weight back on track!
Wow! I’ve never seen a scale that showed so much! That thing is amazing. I would love to have one to make it easier and more accurate to track how much I’m eating.
This looks so awesome!! I’ve wanted to watch my calories, but I’m afraid I never put down the right amount! This would help tremendously!!!
This is the year….right?? HA! I am working on improving my overall health and this little beauty would be such a help!
Wow, that’s a cool scale. I know I’d use it every day on my journey to better health. Sure would be nice to win one of these giveaways, but especially this one.
This is so awesome. Much better than a scale and calculator and looking up grams of various foods!
WOW!!! I have a BS in Nutrition and all those calculations get a little old! This would make life SO easy! Especially in shedding those extra 4 month old baby pounds! Thanks!!
Wow, this is so cool! I’d love one! I feel like I’m always guessing on those nutrition facts…
I would love to have this scale!! I am trying hard to shed left over, um toddler weight? This would be the perfect tool for me to better manage what I am taking in so that I can be healthy. Pick me, pick me!!
I would LOVE this scale! Not only to help me with my portion control, but also because my daughter has type 1 diabetes, and this would make carb counting so much easier! Oooh, I hope I win. :)
I love this! I didn’t even know such a cool thing existed. I had a baby about 4 months ago, and I need help getting back in shape. Thanks for the opportunity!
Wow, lots of entries already. I would love the simplicity of this. My husband and I obviously have different nutritional needs and it is just habit for me to scoop the same size portions onto our plates at dinner etc. I would love to be able to tell what how much I am really eating. Thanks for the chance!
With two toddlers running around this would be so much easier than trying to figure it out by hand or on websites :)
this would so help me with weighing my food … and (I won’t lie) it’ll help me with weighing oils to make my soaps and lotions too.
This would be wonderful to help my husband and I manage our portion control. We are trying to get healthier for our kids.
How neat!! I could really put one of these scales to good use.
So amazing…my husband would LOVE this as he’s trying to get into better shape. Of course I could use the help as well!
So cool! I love that. I would love it because I already use little $5 scale I got a drug store. I question it’s accuracy all the time.
I’ve always wanted a food scale in the kitchen, but haven’t ever actually bought one. This little beauty seems to be a food scale super hero! I would love to have one on hand in my kitchen. :O)
Wow, of all the things I’ve ever wanted to win this one for sure takes the cake. It is awesome!
I would love to have this scale. Guessing calorie content on my favorite healthy foods is a crap shoot. This scale could really change my view on what a correct portion is. LOVE IT WANT IT!! Love your blog by the way.
My son is a Type 1 diabetic. We use a book and a scale and packaging to figure his carbohydrates for everything he eats. It would be a great tool for us. :)
I have a manual scale, so this one would be the Cadillac of them all!!
Wow! What a great scale! With my weight constantly going up and down, this is a good way to count calories instead of estimating like I usually do.
I would love this scale! I exercise but my biggest problem is portion control. You would think I was really good at serving sizes because my daughter is a Type 1 diabetic. But, there is still too much guessing going on. This would make both of our lives easier. Thank You!
Oh, I want one. I need one because my New Years Resolution is to get healthy and excersice. I have been doing great so far, down 3lbs but I know that scale would help me sooooo much :)
blessedmama02(at)hotmail(dot)com
I hate estimating because I am sure I am doing it wrong! Please, I want one of these!
i would LOVE to have this! i am a college student so it’s hard enough trying to eat healthy… i can’t afford to buy a food scale. i would love to be able to weigh out ONE serving size! i’m pretty sure i eat more than one serving, due to influence from restaurants! :[
https://twitter.com/#!/giakaylee29/status/162269437288923136
I’d love one! No more guessing! Quick and easy! What’s not to love? :)
I blogged about this giveaway. http://whatadayitis.blogspot.com/2012/01/perfect-portions-scale-giveaway.html
After my baby is born, I would love to begin a more mindful way of eating. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love to win!
I would love to win because I just started Jillian’s 30 day shred and I REALLY need to watch what I eat…so tired of the guesswork! LOL!
Thanks for the chance!

I would love to have this in my kitchen to weigh all- know all!
Wow, this makes things so much easier. I want it!
Oh, I would love to win this. I abhor calorie counting but am committed to doing it for all of February and March for an upcoming project on my blog. This tool would save my sanity and likely help me lose ten pounds!
I’d love one to see if it has all MY favorite foods on it. Frozen Raw Trout, Seal Meat, Boiled Intestines, Beluga Muktuk… :)
I LOVE this! It’s crazy awesome!
WOW
That scale is amazing – I always guess – but to know the oz and the calories without having to look each up that is the best
Thanks so for the opportunity
Cheers
Catie
wow, that is amazing! That would make losing this baby weight so much easier.
I would love to win one of these. It would take the guessing particularly out of snacking for me. Trying to measure or “eye ball” amounts leaves too much room for error when you are trying to stick to a diet plan. This would be so helpful!
I would love to win this because I am a big snacker … this would help me cut back!
oh man, i would love to win this. i have been trying to lose baby weight and i’m finding that eating has become a challenge with a child! i would love to have a way to keep track of what i am putting in my mouth so that i become more careful — for example my lunch of 4 chocolate chips probably would no longer make the cut!
I tweeted about the giveaway!
https://twitter.com/#!/jess_alora/status/162273521635045377
I would love this scale because I was just thinking that I need to look into buying one….plus it looks cool!
I’ve been contemplating getting a food scale and this one looks awesome!
This would help out when preparing food for my family. Love it!!
Would love to win this and take the guessing out of my portions. Especially for my husband. He has no idea about portion control.
This would be awesome to win! Ever since I had my 2 daughters (who are pretty close in age) around 5 yrs ago my weight has be fluctuating all over the place. I’d love to get back on track and this would really help!!
I would love this in my kitchen, then I could stay on target and eat all the lovey foods I love :)
This would mostly be for my husband. I am always trying to get him to eat smaller portions and this would help him see what a difference it would make,
That scale sounds amazing! I used My Fitness Pal online for awhile, but estimating every single bite’s worth of calories was frustrating for me. We Americans are far too blessed. Our ideas of portion sizes are way off.
This looks awesome. I cook healthy food but my problem is portion control! I can’t help but eat and eat and I make excuses saying “its healthy right so no problem”. This would help me out a ton – keep me in check. Crossing my fingers!
I would love it to weigh flour(s) for baking. I also think this would make a great education tool for my family.
I would love one of these. We are doing a Biggest Loser type contest at work and so far I am doing good, but now I ma slowing down. I think it I got a handle on portion sizes I could get back on track.
Basically, I have no self control when it comes to eating. It would be so nice to have a gadget to help me know what portion sizes I should really be enjoying.
Wow, what an awesome scale. I’d love to win one.
I NEED this scale–because this has been my fight since 5 yrs. old, and I need help. And I love gadgets!! And this gadget just may be the thing that would keep me going.
This is the neatest gadget! I would love one for all of the reasons you listed it’s great and a few more!
Wow! I gotta get me one of those! Talk about genious!
yes, I would love to win a Perfect Portions – Food Scale with Nutritional Calculator. This would be so much better
than my spring scale.
I definitely need one! i really have never counted my calories before so know that I have three kids and entering my 30s its harder to keep the weight off, i really could use the help!
I snack way to much, with one of these, it may help to curb my horrible and unhealthy snacking habit…thus helping improve my health :) Thanks for the giveaway!!!
This would be an amazing tool to have! I would love to win it!
This scale is genius! I love the idea because I’m more worried about getting proper daily macro/micro-nutrient totals than calories, and my way of doing it involves many more steps. With this scale I could just enter the food code, and see the stats right away!
OMG, this is the most awesome scale I have ever seen! I would love to win this scale, so I could use it to help me lose weight.
I would love to win this so that I could give it to my dad to help him along with his weight loss!
This would really help me keep a much healthier lifestyle and maybe finally lose some of this baby weight!
I would LOVE to have this, just in time for me to start the healthier eating/weight loss after my baby is born!
I’d love to know what kind of portion sizes I’m actually eating- no more grazing with a whole bag to eat from!
I would totally love this, it would take the guess work of how may carbs I’ve eaten and help me manage my diabetic’s better. Wow how very neat.
I would love to win one to give to my mom cause she is always trying to drop a couple lbs…
I’m pregnant with my 2nd child, and trying not too gain too much weight this time around. This would be really, REALLY helpful.
You’re right, I hate the guessing game too. And with this little beauty, I don’t have to guess! Plus it’s easy to cheat on portion sizes…
I would LOVE this! Why? No more guess work! This would be AWESOME! :)
What a great scale!! This would be so nice!
Oh this looks great! I would love this, because it would take a lot of effort out of my day! I currently try to put in my recipes into a recipe analyzer, but then it’s hard for me to get the correct weight/size of the portions so I know what’s going on. This would be fab!
How awesome! I would love it for more portion control. :)
This would be wonderful to have so I could control my portions.
I would LOVE one of these to help me kick in healthy eating habits! And for my cooking in general. So awesome!
Oh how I could use this…..
What a help this would be with my battle of the bulge, no more excuses as too how many calories something has. Thanks for the giveaway.
What an excellent scale–I would love to win one of these for our family (various health concerns).
YES! I would LOVE to win this! I am new to figuring out calories, etc. and this would make it that much easier!
I would love one to help keep track of what I am eating!
This is my year to get healthy! This would help so much! Thanks for the chance to win something that can help me make a huge difference in my life.
This would help SO much for me right now! I have such a hard time calculating portions.
Ohhhhh my gosh, this is an amazing product! I would use it to help get off these pesky few pounds leftover from baby #2.
I would love one of these scales! Makes it easy to see what you are eating and how to get the most or least calories for the amount of food!
I would love to win this to really “see” portion control. I am very visual. lol, my poor hubby used to reference a measurement until I explained that when he does that I don’t get a mental picture of it in my mind: it is blank. =0) So this would be so much fun and a practical way to weigh! =0)
Of course I would! This is awesome. I’ve never seen anything like it!
I would love one of these scales too! I have been trying to count calories and eat correct portion sizes and this would make it SO much easier.
I would use this baby daily with the myfitnesspal program I am using because it simply goes by calories and this would really help my calculations stay accurate! Hoping!
Love this product! Would be great to help me lose weight after baby :)
this is awesome!!! I’d love one for two reasons….one…I am always trying to teach everyone in my household about nutrition and portion sizes and second, it drives me crazy when i see a recipe where everything is by weight!
I would love to have this to take the guess work out of eating!!!
This is so cool! It would obviously be terrific for weight loss and nutrition, I would also use it to measure ingredients while cooking. I hope I win this one!
I would love this scale because it would help me get my portion sizes right.

That is SO cool! I would love one of these scales because, I too, am trying to lose that last bit of baby weight and get healthy just for the sole purpose of feeling better! I thank you, Ashley, for being concerned about your health and for sharing all these awesome tools with us!!!
I would love this scale as both my husband and I are both working on losing weight! Good luck on your dieting too!
This would be awesome!! My husband is ALWAYS saying we need a kitchen scale and one that figures everything out for us would be neat!
I would love this scale to be able to portion out food for my hubby and i. I feel that sometimes (well, always :)), i put WAY too much food on our plate, and instead of feeling good about eating dinner, we often feel super full and bloated…not a good feeling :(
My daughter has Type 1 diabetes. We have to count the carbohydrates in every food she eats. This would be a God-send!
I would LOVE this scale so I can easily see portion control. I think that is the hardest thing about keeping things in check. How do I know how much I am acutally eating when it isn’t a prepackaged size. I don’t want to buy prepackaged meal because they are more processed and cost more. And who wants to spend MORE money.
Wow! What a great tool for eating healthy. Have never seen one before. Thanks for the chance to win.
I use my scale every day, but this one would make life SO much easier! Hope I win!
I would love this to measure out portions for my kids. I give them smaller portions, but sometimes I wonder if the portions are small enough… I didn’t think much about it until I recently read a magazine article and realized that I was giving way too much. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
With a little 1 year old girl running around the house, this would actually allow me to count calories to lose the last of the baby fat. The bundle of energy doesn’t really give me the time to figure it out the hard way :) Plus when I lose the weight, I’ll have more energy to chase her around the park with!
Pick me!
I would love this scale, as my fiance and I are trying to get in shape for our wedding this summer. We are both already trying to eat healthy but knowing how much we are eating is important! We would use this scale to stay on track!
I really struggle with portions, and I’m trying to lose about 150 pounds, so I would LOVE one!
Wow. Amazing. I have lost all my baby weight plus some. so happy to hear about this. it would be wonderful to help loose even more weight.
OMG! I use a regular scale and find it so annoying to have to calculate my portions myself. This scale is so awesome. Of course I would love one of my own!!!!!!!!
I’m trying to lose weight and get healthier to improve my blood pressure, and I think that this would really help.
I would love one! I really need help with portion control. I gained 7 pounds this holiday season, and it’s wanting to stick around.
Being able to know correct portion sizes without all the guesswork. Very cool!
I have been a habitual over eater for 31 years. Not necessarily because I was just a greedy eater, but because I honestly did not know any better. I am trying to get healthy. The hubby has lost 70 pounds and I have lost 30. He is better at size and nutritional calculations where for me… I am just lost. Taking out the guess work would be a HUGE help for both of us to get closer to our normal body weight. I still have 145 pounds at least but on my way!

WOW! That is awesome! I want one!
I would love this because it’s so hard to snack healthily! This would make that process MUCH more enjoyable!!
I love my food scale! But it’s just a plain old digital scale. This is awesome!
I have started and re-started my healthy eating routine–this would help me get on track once and for all!
Oh. Em. Gee. That is totally CRA-ZEEE. I would love, LOVE to have this scale. No more questions, at. all!!!
I have always wanted a kitchen scale! This one comes with such AMAZING features! Thanks for the chance to win one! :)
I would LOVE to have one of these. I am way over weight and in need of doing something to loose it. This would definetly help.
we really need to change our portion size- i think this would help. thank you for sharing.
I have never seen a scale like this…it looks awesome!!!
I feel like I’ve gotten the exercise part down, now I need help with the food part. This scale would be perfect!
Since I have 2 small children, this scale would be a real time saver!
Wow! Who doesn’t need this scale.
I need something like this to simplify looking everything up online and the extra time that takes.
What a great tool!
I would love love LOVE one of these. It eliminates all the guesswork! So awesome.
This would be so helpful because I suck at portion size. I swear that I have a delayed satiety gland in my brain because I tend to eat until my tummy hurts. And for my husband, it is the other way around. He is trying to gain or maintain his weight and focuses on protein while he is working out so helpful both ways.
That is amazing! The hubs and I are talking about getting pregnant again soon, so this would be awesome to have to see how many extra calories I need while I’m pregnant! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!
i need to lose 40 pounds. and when i ‘guesstimate’ i know i do it on the light side especially with fruits and vegetables because you can eat A LOT and they have no calories, right??? i tweeted about it too! https://twitter.com/fetchedbygrace/statuses/162305554272894976
I would love love love to win this! I am currently counting calories and weighing most stuff on a cheap scale I have. This one is awesome and I would love to have it.
So cool! I am always trying to guess how much my serving size is! This would make it so much easier and hopefully see the pounds on the scale dropping quicker!

I would use the scale so I can count calories better to help me lose weight!
Hi! I’m trying so hard to cook nutritious, yet weight reducing food to my family, but the serving size is ridiculous in our house! I keep telling them (my family) that the servings are too big, but they don’t want to hear it. This would prove it! Thank you for the chance to win it.
This would be awesome! No more guess work or having to figure it out yourself.
I would love to have this because there would be no more guessing or calculating. It would do all the work for me. Awesome!
I agree that knowing the correct portions is difficult. I would use the scale to eunsure that I am not overeating.
This would be so much easier than getting out all the measuring cups and spoons. Saves on dishwashing.
I would LOVE to win one!
Um…yes! I want one to help me hit my calorie target w/o going too much over!
I just started counting my calories but there are a lot of things that I have to guess on. The scale would solve that problem!
I would be much more likely to stick with weight loss with this awesome scale; portion-size “guessing” is difficult, especially when you think you’re doing well, but are really overeating!
I am 7 months pregnant. I didn’t lose much with my last child.
I am DETERMINED to lose this baby weight (I’ve only gained 10 this time – yippee!)
plus the weight from the last child, AS SOON AS THIS ONE COMES!
I would love this scale to help me with my goals… a mom needs energy,
consistency, and efficiency – this would help me with all of the above!!!
Thanks!
this woud be the perfect addition to the P.I.N.K. method that I am doing.
Ooo, this would be so nice! I’d love to have one just to save time and guessing!
I would love one of these I am currently on a calorie counting diet and this would just make my life so much easier. I have lost 19 lb in 25 day I would love to keep up the momentum.
Portion control is my biggest problem so this awesome scale would make dieting soooo much easier. Thanks for the chance to win it!
This would be great for my husband because he is diabetic and we need to watch his food servings. Thanks for the chance!
This is the best thing I have ever seen!!! Hope I win :)
This would be great!!! I just started a weight loss challenge with the people at my work… i have a feeling this would give me an unfair advantage… love it!!!
This is awesome. I am about to have a baby in a couple of week. It would be great to have something like this to get myself back in shape.
I’m having my baby tomorrow, and really want to lose 50 lbs in the next year. This would really help me!
My biggest issue is portion control, this would so help me out!
https://twitter.com/#!/TAPeschke I tweeted about this giveaway!
This product is genius! I have a daughter who is diabetic. Counting carbs is our way of life. This would really help when dealing with producde, etc.
What a great giveaway! My husband and I are both trying to lose weight but it is often frustrating using the online calorie counter because we really have to guess so much and I don’t know how accurate it really is. This would solve the problem!
I’d love to win this. My hubby and I are type 2 diabetics, our oldest is hyper insulin so we need a help in getting our portions and such under control so that we can be healthier and prayerfully our other children won’t follow down the same road.
