Scales For You

Several years ago, I purchased a Nintendo game to have at my house when my grandchildren visited.  Of course, I soon became somewhat addicted to playing.  Sometime later our house burned and we lost everything including the Nintendo game.  After we had rebuilt and obtained the necessities again, I thought I would replace the Nintendo game.  Like most technology, the game was out-of-date and all I could find was used units that didn’t work properly.  My daughter suggested I get a Gameboy instead.  I had never heard of a Gameboy, but she got me one for Christmas that year.  Guess what!  I had my old game back, but it was a handheld unit.  I could take it with me anywhere I went and always have it available if I got bored.  The grandchildren loved it!  They could borrow my Gameboy anytime they were with me.  In fact, we eventually bought one for them.  Portability is a convenient thing!

A handheld scale is now available.  You can put it in your pocket or purse and take it with you on the road.  If you’re serious about dieting and measuring your food portions, this portable scale is a wonderful convenience.  Take it into a restaurant, measure the amount of food that you need to eat, call for a take-out carton and place the remainder of the food in it.  Once it’s in that take-out carton, it’s not nearly so tempting to eat it all.  And, if you’re willing to eat leftovers, put it in the motel refrigerator and reheat it for another meal.  That’s smart!  Now you can use that money you saved to shop for clothes!
