IMPORTANT!
• Your WW 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’s platform and DO NOT MOVE.
• As this scale is so accurate, it’s important to stand still and not to get on
and off the scale repeatedly. Even a slight change in your position will
cause a different reading. As the scale rounds up or down to the nearest
increment, this can contribute further to different readings with repeat
weighing.
• Ensure the scale is on a at, level surface.
• Do not keep moving the scale to a new location, as this too can cause
different readings. Try to keep it in the same place.
• It is best to measure yourself using the same scale, as results can vary
between scales due to manufacturing tolerances.
• You will get an ‘Err’ message if you stand on the scale before ‘0:0’ appears.
• You will get an ‘Err’ message if your weight is greater than the capacity of
the scale (see ‘Features’)
• When you’re losing weight, weigh yourself only once a week, on the same
day of the week, at the same time of day, wearing the same clothes or the
same amount of clothing. Do not weigh yourself after a large meal.
• To clean the scale, use a damp cloth without using a cleaning product.
Make sure that water does not penetrate inside the appliance.
• Do not place anything on the surface of the scale.
• This scale is designed for home use only and is not suitable for professional
purposes.

Using the scale for tracking progress
Weight Fluctuations
A scale measures your total body weight, which includes bone, muscle, fat,
and water. Weight can uctuate day-to-day (and during the day) due to a
number of factors. For example:
• High salt intake can increase the body’s retention of water, which may
temporarily increase the weight.
• Dehydration from exercise, illness or low uid intake can cause temporary
weight loss.
• Hormonal changes in the menstrual cycle can cause increased water
retention leading up to the period – resulting in temporary weight gain.
Scale Readings
Because weight can uctuate over very short periods, it is advisable not to
place too much importance on every scale reading; but your scale is a very
valuable tool for monitoring your weight between weeks and over several
months.
Take note that different scales may give different readings. The scale at your
GP practice may show a different reading to your home scale – use the
reading on your home scale to monitor your weight.
Monitoring Weight
Waist circumference can give an indication of change in weight, but regular
weight checks are the easiest way to keep track of progress. However,
weighing yourself too frequently can cause unnecessary anxiety about
temporary changes in scale readings (see Weight Fluctuations above). Here
are 5 steps for monitoring your weight sensibly:
• Weigh once a week and on same day of week.
• Weigh at same time of day (e.g. in morning, after peeing and before
drinking).
• Wear same clothing (e.g. what you usually wear in bed).
• Use same scale.
• Place scale in same location.

Although a scale can be a useful tool on your weight-loss journey, it is
not in itself a programme for losing weight. Come to a workshop and
learn from us the best way to be healthy. Call 0345 2 668951 or go to
www.ww.co.uk to nd a workshop near you.
Facts You Should Know

message ‘Err’.
