Has anyone with low vision found a bathroom scale they can read?

I have low vision and need lots of light and larger display digits to read clocks and bathroom scales. I have found clocks with bright large displays, but I cannot find a bathroom scale with readable display. I have to get my wife to read the scale while I'm standing on it with as little extra weight as possible.

A talking scale might work for you. Here is one on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Taylor-Electronic-Talking-Bathroom-Capacity/dp/B009Y32MVY/ref=sr_1_5?crid=32DYMHRL5ZIDI&dchild=1&keywords=talking+bath+scale&qid=1615979758&s=hpc&sprefix=talking+bath+scale%2Caps%2C189&sr=1-5

The talking scale arrived about 7:30 PM on the day I ordered it via Amazon Prime. It came with 3 AAA batteries and worked as advertised. Now I'll get weighed every day which will make me more mindful, and it will help me lose the 5# I want.
