Abstract
A programmable microprocessor-controlled digital scale capable of storing profiles of multiple users and respective user-specific weight management information includes a software program executed by the microprocessor to create and store a user profile for each user. The software program also allows the generation user-specific weight control information based on the user'"'"'s profile and weight, and displays the information to the user. The generated user-specific weight control information can include, for example: current weight; absolute as well as percentage change in weight; graph of the minimum and maximum weight for the average person matching the user'"'"'s profile; a thirty day rolling graph of the user'"'"'s weight history; information about the number of calories that should be consumed in order to either maintain weight, or lose one pound per week; and body fat measurements.
