This chair could produce some embarrassing moments for people...

Ukmedix News has heard about a chair designed by the Fuwapica Furniture Company of Japan which is designed to change colour depending on how heavy the person who is sitting on it is. This chair could produce some embarrassing moments for people who are overweight as the whole room will therefore be aware that they are suffering from a weight problem. If you are overweight apparently the chair goes a red colour as a warning that you should go on a diet and if you are of a healthy weight the chair will stay a normal blue colour.

Obviously this chair is just a gimmick because the best way to know if you are overweight or not is to stand on a set of weighing scales but it could nevertheless be a useful tool to have around your house to warn you if you are piling on the pounds. At Ukmedix News we believe that it is important to weigh yourself at a regular time so that you are under no illusions of your real weight. Some people take this little bit too far and weigh themselves every day and we reckon that this is a little bit too much as the body weight of a person fluctuates on a daily basis depending on whether they have eaten or drunk anything recently.

At Ukmedix News we advise individuals that they should weigh themselves on a weekly basis and always weigh themselves at the same time early in the morning before they have breakfast or drink any liquids. This way you will get a real picture of whether you are putting on weight or losing weight. Be careful also of using different scales to weigh yourself as there is sometimes a margin of error between individual weighing scales, so try to use the same scales every week.
