THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT
MANAGING YOUR WEIGHT
Diet, exercise, and determination all play a part in effective weight management.
Your scale is the tool that lets you chart your progress, and measure your success,
whether your goal is weight loss, weight gain, or maintaining your
current weight.
Because weight varies, as explained below, focus on the progression and
sustained long-term changes rather than on exact day-to-day readings.
When you’re dieting and exercising, small, fluctuating weight gains and
losses are common.
Common Causes of Weight Fluctuations (during the
day, and day-to-day)
• Water retention and weight gain from consumption of large meals
• Water retention from salt and carbohydrate intake
• Muscle buildup (muscle weighs more than fat) from strenuous
resistance training
• Weight loss caused by dehydration due to illness, low fluid intake
or strenuous exercise
• Temporary weight gains and losses from menstrual cycle
Weight Maintenance vs. Weight Loss/Gain
Get into the habit of weighing yourself no more than once a week when you’re
on a weight management program. Weighing in at consistent intervals will give
you the most accurate picture of your progress, eliminating many short-term,
unrelated weight changes.
Follow These Simple Rules
• Weigh yourself once a week.
• Weigh yourself on the same day of the week.
• Weigh yourself at the same time of day.
• Weigh yourself wearing the same clothes.
• Weigh yourself in the same place.
• Weigh yourself on the same scale.
Weight fluctuates more when a person is overweight or underweight. When the
goal is to maintain current weight, weighing yourself more than once a week is a
good way to stay on track.
Remember: A scale is an essential tool in any weight management program,
but it only records your progress. Exercise, diet and determination are what you
need to reach your goal.

Facts You Should Know
Your Thinner®scale is a precise measuring instrument that is most accurate when
weighing a stationary object. To ensure 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 floor surface, and store where it will be protected from impact. The
scale is an electronic instrument and should never be submerged in water. Clean
with damp cloth and/or glass cleaner.
To replace batteries lift the battery cover on the bottom of the scale and replace
the old batteries with 4 new AAA batteries. Dispose of the old batteries
properly. Do not attempt to open the scale or to remove any components.
Servicing should be done by qualified technicians only. See warranty
