Lets start with our number one action item from the brain dump of last post. Collecting and tracking our numbers!
We have been using Withings smart scale for a couple of years now to track our weights. Me and my husband have separate accounts and it automatically recognizes who stepped on the scale and adds the new measurement to that person’s account. I now have almost 4 years worth of my weight graph! It include 2 pregnancies where the graph goes up and up and then suddenly sharply down right after the delivery 🙂
We love Withings scale so much that we actually have two of them 😛
We got our first one when I got pregnant with our daughter 4 years ago and opted for the one that does not analyze body composition because I was worried of the tiny electrical current that it passes through you. A couple years later, my husband also wanted to track his body fat ratio so we got the smart one too. What we found out later is that, you can just step off it right after you see your weight if you don’t want the body composition analysis 🙂 I guess even wearing socks would block the electrical current 😀
Now it is time to track my husband’s blood pressure being high-ish.
We already have an Omron at home and are happy with the consistency and ease of use. But this time we wanted something with wifi connection so that we can track the progress graph over time. Since we loved our Withings and have active accounts in that app, my first choice would be the Withings Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor. But unfortunately the reviews are not that bright. So we decided to follow the advice of the wirecutter.com and bought
Omron 10 Series Wireless Bluetooth Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor.
