A weighing device of the electronic bathroom scale type, includes four feet, each fitted with a load cell, each load cell including two resistors combined in a Wheatstone bridge type of assembly to define a first axis of symmetry and a second axis of symmetry, the assembly further including at least one auxiliary circuit configured to selectively short-circuit two resistors belonging to the same foot or to two neighboring feet in the bathroom scale, the first auxiliary circuit being symmetrical relative to the first axis or the second axis, the assembly being controlled by an electronic control unit to estimate a weight and to estimate an offset of a user on the bathroom scale.
