Can a Wi-Fi-Enabled Bathroom Scale Help You Lose Weight? [REVIEW]

In the increasingly connected world of 2012, WiFi-enabled household gadgetry is becoming more and more common. We have televisions with Internet browsers, refrigerators that offer built-in computers and thermostats you can control remotely.

So, how about bathroom scales that beam the results of your latest weigh-in to the cloud? Fitbit's Aria Wi-Fi Smart Scale tracks weight, body fat percentage and BMI, and automatically uploads the data, via Wi-Fi, to a Fitbit online profile.

The Aria costs $129.95 (£99.99 in the UK), considerably more than a traditional set of scales, but many consider the price tag a worthy investment. We have tested the system, so if you're interested in a high-tech, connected way to monitor your weight, take a look through the gallery below.
