San Franciscan Wendy Gold is the creative genius behind Art de Toilette. Her line of bathroom scales sure makes getting on those scales a lot more fun.
You've got to love the bathroom scales without numbers. One of them is described as "Ignorance is Bliss - The numbers never lie. That’s why we got rid of 'em." The other numberless scale has all sorts of affirmations to keep your ego intact. Phrases like "Simply ravishing," "Heartbreaker," and "I'm so amazing," replace those lying numbers.
But if you enjoy the guilt trips scales frequently provide, then get the chocolate scales or the barefoot confessional scales where you can "...step right up for salvation!" The 'Battle of the Bulge' scale pits proteins versus carbs.
Her motivational scales include one which shows a red carpet to signify the big day you are losing weight for. The willpower scales allows you to attach motivational reminders of your own.
Last but not least is the Bun in the Oven scales where the weight gain is legitimate because of a growing baby.
