How do I calibrate digital scales with Australian coins?

How many mL is 500g of water??!?

please help me. i am trying to calibrate my digital scale but i dont have any weights so im trying to work around it. the calibration weight must be 500 grams but im not sure how to achieve this specific weight. any ideas? the water thing was my best guess but if your smart about it you could prob find a better way of doing this. let me know! thanks

Are non digital scales accurate?

I just weighed myself on a scale and I just wanted to know how accurate they are. It wasnt digital. And how off they could be

paranoid about my weight and what I eat, someone help?

okay basically I’ve been feeling scared of what I eat, or eating in general because I’m worried about getting fat. I’m 5″0 feet exactly and weigh 7 stone 9…

my weight alternates each day going up and down between 7″6 and 7″10 but it never exceeds 7″10
(however all scales say different things? like my wii fit says I’m 7″6 a lot, and my digital scales at home say I’m 7″9 a lot, I’m assuming digital would be more accurate? but sometimes I do trust old fashion stuff like the manual scales)

but anyway lets just say for now those weights are correct, which would make my BMI around 20.52
which is healthy? its like just in the middle of ideal which is good right?
but I’m scared because whenever I see my weight dropping and gaining, even though it does not exceed the 7″10… I’m scared of eating. Because I don’t believe in diets, I don’t believe in saying “oh you can only eat stuff that tastes like crap” because I’m sorry who wants to? I can’t BE that dedicated, I just can’t because it makes me miserable, sure I’d feel better about my body, but I’d feel like I was trapped into eating certain things JUST to look good.

So my alternative is to not eat at all which is what I did 2 years ago. When I was 16 I stopped eating because of girls at school, I was picked on and bullied- not for my weight I’ve never been fat, but just in general, and when I just saw these girls they were slim and when I looked at myself I felt like I wasn’t, so one day I stopped eating, not all together in one day- but gradually I just ate less and less until the absolute thought of food disgusted me.

My dad was cooking burgers one day and I threw up because of the smell and the look, I went down to 6 stone 4 and the doctor said I was becoming very underweight and according to family was gormed (I think its called) and my first 4 sets of ribs were visible

It was only quite recently, about January this year that I started getting very happy because of changes in my life which changed my eating habits, it made me eat and my mum suggested that it was because I was happy with who I was and didn’t feel the need to make an image for someone else

but I’ve been becoming unhappy with myself again looking at myself and thinking I am fat, often pulling and prodding at my stomach, crying. But this time I can’t just stop eating? I’ve tried but I get so hungry because your stomach adjusts to how much food is consumed a day and waits for that food to come. I try to exercise every other day for just over an hour, and have been drinking about 1.5ltr bottle of water daily.

Today for example my parents went away and left me money for a takeaway, just as I was placing my order online, I looked at myself and felt disgusted… I wanted a 1/4 pounder with cheese, no salad or sauce, and some cheesy chips… I don’t eat like this every day of course? I have burgers about once every 3 weeks if that? So should I be feeling sick with myself? or am I just being paranoid about my weight so much that I think that by eating ANYTHING I’ll become fat?

I have been thinking about trying to eat healthier and often check the contents of my food before eating it (fat, carbs, kcals etc) and try to stick to under the GDA (guideline daily amount)

Do you think that if I keep up my exercise every other week, drinking water, and only ordering takeaways occassionally (being like once every three weeks) that I’ll be okay?

I mean when I gained weight because of being happy, I went up to 7 stone 5… and then I had a contraceptive injection recently, which side effect is weight gain and I went up to 7″10 which stuck around… as I said tho this weight varies and every week I weigh myself, and I never go above that… does that mean I’m eating okay and what I’m eating isn’t making me put on weight?

I just need some reassuring words because I am worried that I will drag myself back into not eating
and I don’t want to be like that again…
I became very ill, and when I look back on pictures I actually SEE the skinniness like I didn’t before… but sometimes I envy that I’m not still like that… I just don’t want my mind and self consciousness taking me back to anorexia or worse

Please help?

Is something wrong with my digital scale?

When I calibrate it with a 200 gram weight, it gives me .02 less on the check weight the first time around.

When I zero an object, then remove it, the value shifts by as much as .2 *grains*. Putting the same object back on the scale ALWAYS gives me 0.

According to the onboard level, the scale is perfectly fine on the solid surface. It has a box, so air currents are not a problem. The closest electrical object is through a wall about 6 feet away– and it’s a fridge. (Computer is about 12 feet, through a wall/door combo.) It is brand new, as is the check weight.

Can CR2032 batteries drain over time even when not in use?

If the batteries are just lying there does the charge go out of them after a few months/years? My brand new digital scale isn’t turning on and I’m thinking that it’s the batteries but they seem to have never been used they’re just old.
CR2032 batteries are the flat circle ones in case someone doesn’t wanna google the name.

I want to lose weight!!!! please answer this questions with a non generic answers!?

I am a 16 year old girl, i’m about 5′4 and as of today I weigh 119lbs on my moms digital scale, I really wanna get down to 105lb or even 100lb bc I’m a cheerleader and last year my bases always complained about how much weight i had gained and about me being heavy. Ok if I were like the cheerleaders on tv who starve themselves everything would be great, but no! real cheerleaders eat, and i love to eat! I think about food all the time! 24/7 no lie!

Here is what i ate today
Breakfast- lean chicken pattie (random… i know), 1 egg and about 3 tablespoons of hashbrowns
Snack- i failed at staying away from the snack machine and I ate 1 whole pop tart and a 1/2 of the second one but I felt bad and threw the rest away
Lunch- tortilla wrap (usually its whole wheat but im not sure if this one was) ,with chicken and lettuce inside, tortilla chips in a small snack bag, and mandarin oranges
Snack- ok i just got my licence and wanted to look cool with the rest of the ppl from my school so i got a large sweet tea after school…. not an everyday thing i usually come home and snack

Excercise: 20 mins of a core slimdown thing on demand (tv) and 100 crunches and 20 push ups

its too hot to run and everytime i wanna go its, u need to study and when im not running its… daughter ur getting fat….
