Scales....... Addicted???

Just wanted to know if I was the only one that was addicted to their scales??? I tried to hide them from myself, I put them in the linen closet which is in my bathroom.... however every time I walked past the closet I knew they were hiding in there just waiting to tell me what I weighed, so sure enough 3 days later they came back into the light and now.... confession..... I stand on them every time I'm in the bathroom.... phew, glad I got that off my chest! Sad I know, Just wanted to share, anyone else have the same obsession with their scales? Lee

guilty!!!

Me too!! Some days its my best friend! Then just as quick I hate it and feel disappointed. I really need a reality check! I am down 76 lbs in less then 4 months. I can't wait to post a new pic no one will recognize me Cindy

I weigh twice a day. I weigh naked in the morning, and then I weigh naked before bed. There usually is a 2 to 3lb difference. It is amazing how I can be 2 to 3lbs lighter in the morning and I probably on pee 3/4 to cup of pee? LOL Debbie - 52.5

Well, that's a tough question all right...but how's this for confusing? I weight naked last night, didn't eat or drink a thing, and woke up weighing 2 pounds more this morning! Today, I hate my scale! Julie

Lee, Don't feel bad, I have also hidden the scale under my bed and find that only 2 days pass before I have pulled it out and stepped on. I also notice a difference in weight from morning to night and even after I have had my rare bowel movement. Lulu -54

I'd tell you guys to get a life, but then I'd have to find one too! I tried to strategically place my scale next to my treadmill. And then I told myself I couldn't weigh until I used the treadmill. That was real effective! Now I only use the treadmill 3-4 times a week. You just can't win. Windy/Pat

Oh Pat! Thanks so much! I'm having a terrible day, hate my job; someone has already yelled at me this morning and I NEEDED a good laugh. Julie

Julie, You deserve a much better day than that! You just go yell back at whoever yelled at you. They probably are long overdue anyway. If you need help reading the help wanted ads afterward, let me know. I can give you some great tips and websites for job hunting. Windy/Pat

Thanks. While I didn't yell back, I did address the issue by telling the person I wished to maintain a good working relationship, but would not be spoken to that way again. Go me! I would NEVER have done that before surgery, but I really am feeling alot more confident in a lot of different areas. I'm already looking for a new job. I'm waiting right now for a call from a job that I really, really want but they're dragging their feet; I have a second interview at another place on Thursday and was contacted yesterday by e-mail from another job asking if I was still interested in interviewing. I'm sure something will open up....but I HOPE it opens up soon. Thanks for caring, Julie P.S. Anyone heard from Kelly lately? I know she's busy with her family issues, but I hope she knows we miss her here!
