I know this probably sounds silly, but my curiousity (and my g/f's too) is piqued. Have any of you (men or women) weighed yourselves on the typical household bathroom scale as you approached or exceeded 300lbs. - and what were your results?
I mean, most of them read only up to 300lbs. unless you buy a new model that goes higher.... but did you get an accurate reading (eg. went past the 0 mark and stopped on 40, accurately showing you as 340lbs.), or did it just stop short at some preset limit? Did anyone actually break one before?
(One of my ex g/f's was afraid to weigh herself after her parents refused to let her use their scale, saying she might break it. But I wonder if that's more of a myth than reality.)
