The point of this particular blog was a moment of inspiration from a colleague who's currently on a diet. He was down the gym and weighed himself after visiting for 3 straight weeks, but in his words, "the scales must be wrong, 'cos they were saying I was the same weight as Simon Shaw from the England rugby squad - and yet I don't think I should be any heavier than Ben Cohen."

And at that point the idea was born - "Celebrity Scales". Instead of lbs & oz, or kilos - why not display the image of a celebrity who weighs that exact weight - far more empowering!

 "How much do I weigh? Glad you asked, way more than Kylie, but less than Russell Crow!" See - no more shyness! And then to my abject disappointment this evening - I discovered someone else beat me to it! Though I think these celebrity scales need images!! 

What good is genius if it's operating behind the times?
