I’ve never been into working out.  With the recession and all, I’ve convinced myself that it is monetarily irresponsible to join the gym.  So, I’ve taken to doing a frantic jog around my block in the morning, and eating soup at lunch (to offset all the holiday cookies of course!).  So, then I started to think if I purchased a scale, that then I would be further encouraged to live a more healthful lifestyle.  But, all this penny pinching I suppose is thrown out the window when you find something like this…the Seca Aurea 795.  It’s really pretty, and it helps that it is 24 carat gold-platted through the body, and the tread area is real leather.  I found it ‘on sale’ at Amazon for $970 which equals 16 months of gym membership…

This Tanita HA-502 is really cute too, I love how utilitarian it looks, and for $44 it’s a pretty good deal.
