Items I Use and Like
You will need a kitchen scale. Any simple kitchen scale will work, but I prefer a digital scale and for sure one that can zero out to allow adding a bowl to hold the food to measure. Here is the one I use, but anything similar will work.
OXO Good Grips 5-lb Food Scale with Pull-Out Display
You will want a home scale to take measurements each morning. Always compare the same time of day as throughout the day you will gain weight as your body takes in fuel and processes it. My routine is to wake up, go to the bathroom, and weigh myself. I like the WYZE scale because it syncs up to my phone and tracks my progress and gives me other metrix to compare showing my progress along my jouney. Any scale will work, but I like this one.

You can also add Electrolytes if you like. Only 1 or 2 servings per day or you could upset your stomach. You can get any brand you like, but you it must be sugar free and zero carbs.
