ABSTRACT:
The invention at hand represents a dieter's food scale that fits within the base of a plate. It contains a plate scale, a supportive cord, and a digital interface. The supportive cord holds the digital interface firmly in place yet out from under the dinner plate so that an LCD on the digital interface can be clearly viewed. The scale is capable of weighing and displaying the weight of each serving while simultaneously memorizing and storing a weeks activity. A dieter can zero, reset and switch between grams and ounces. The invention at hand is small and compact so that it can be carried off site to use 24/7 in almost any environment. It is battery operated and automatically shuts off to preserve battery life.
