Review on Mackie Food Scale: Easy Automatic Nutrition Calculator for Perfect Portion Control and Calorie Counting by Melissa Dudley

I have recently started gaining weight and needed to quickly find a solution that would help me know what I am putting on my body. As a young man, I could eat whatever I wanted, in almost any quantity, and my weight stayed the same regardless of my activity. This has changed a lot in the last year and I was hoping that this scale would help me control my calories. First, I LOVE the ease of use. There are many food codes on the scale that are easy to find and read, but there's more in the booklet that comes with it! What I also love about this scale is that I can enter about 900 MORE of my own grocery codes compared to other scales! cooked pasta left over from yesterday's dinner (code circled in red in the two images). The screen is large and clearly shows how many grams the pasta was (I "tared/zeroed" the empty plastic bag that only contained 1 gram), and then the calories are circled in yellow. I love that it also shows all the other nutrients like sodium, fiber, protein, carbs and fat! It made measuring a breeze! Love choosing nutrient dense foods more easily than high calorie foods!
