I remember reading “Catcher In The Rye” in a high school literature class. I was always awed by the story of Holden Caufield…literature’s most famous juvenile delinquent. And reading it is the only way you can appreciate the late JD Salinger’s work, since he NEVER will allow his books to be made into movies…even posthumously.

This is a great product. Easy to use and seems to be very accurate and durable.

I purchased the Taylor scale and you step on three times you would get three different measures. This EatSmart scale is perfect and above all very accurate. If you need one get this one.

For what I paid, the product was satisfactory and in excellent condition. However, the Shipping & Handling fee was almost the price of the book which will be a consideration the next time. It took a long time to receive the book – almost a month.

I wanted this book as a companion to Eat Right 4 Your Type. Unfortunately, I found it confusing as on the same page it tells me a certain food is both beneficial and to avoid it. As a list for foods to eat or avoid, it became highly suspect at that moment.

best pedometer I have owned (3 prior to this one). I do about 12K to 15K steps daily and this unit is very accurate (about 99%). good price for a quality product.

Love this kindle shipped really fast and the book I bought was already downloaded when it arrived. Great investment.

Ok, I bought this scale because of the good review, and the “step-on” idea, no calibrating, “very acccurate” and I’m so disappointed with it.

It seems like this scale use memory to make it “very accurate” instead of showing the real weight if the weight is not much different from the last weight, about .1-.3 kg

I weighed myself before lunch, and then again after lunch and I got the same weight I had before my lunch. So I lifted the scale up, put it down, let it calibrate and then weighed myself again and found that now, I gained .3kg from lunch.

So now, I have to lift the scale up, put it down, calibrate it, just to make sure that I will get the right number not the memory one.

I’m trying to loose weight and I weigh myself very often as I’m trying to observe what I’ve done to myself to gain/lose weight. This scale doesn’t help me much at all if I don’t calibrate it everytime I use.

I’m using the scale in Kg instead of Lbs as I’m having a weight loss competition with my family in Thailand. So .1-.3kg means I could win or lose for the week.

I used to have Tanita scale that needs to calibrate everytime you use, by pushing the On button and wait for few seconds. But comparing to this one, that I have to lift it up, down, calibrate it……I missed my old Tanita one.

I bought this book because I had heard it was a classic, and my children were required to read it in high school.

This is a well-written book about a self-centered boy who considered most other people (especially adults) to be idiots. His sister was the only person he respected. He was a loser, having been ejected from several private schools. It could be assumed that he represented the disenchanted generation of the sixties and seventies, but I did not find them this negative. Perhaps authors are required to exaggerate in order to make their points.
