Thanks so much you guys for your replies, I think I will go ahead and buy one if and when I go into the big city of Edmonton......I really would like to know how much body fat I do have even if it’s a rough estimate. It really makes sense to me to step on this machine in the mornings, right after I use the kitty litter....I think it would really inspire me more if I seen an actual number in front of me as well besides the measuring tape and weight scale. I also think it would be a nice reward present to myself for all the hard work I’ve been doing lately too!

Thanks again for all your advice, you folks are wonderful!!!!
