OK, I did it, I threw out the scale............Well, it wasn't working right, I think I must have broke a while ago when I was at 355 lbs..........  So now I have to scale at Kaiser when I am out and about........I think this might work better.  Just thought I would share.   Annabelle

Hopefully it wont drive you crazy.  We get soooo obsessed with that number between our feet that it rules our lives.

Personally, I have to weigh myself first thing every morning. It keeps me honest. When I was heavy, I was really good at lying to myself and denying when the inches/pounds were piling on. I never got on the scale if I could avoid it. Now, I consider it an invaluable tool. The difference is I don't beat myself up, I just do something about it when the numbers start to trend up. It is much easier for me psychologically to deal with 2 or 3 pounds than 7 or 8. I make it a point to step on that scale, especially after I know I've over done it the day before. It's like an obnoxious relative that never lies, but it keeps me from lying to myself. So, call me a scale ho, but I would go nuts without my little digital conscience.

I'm just right around the corner from hitting my 2 year post mark....I too weigh myself every freak'n morning. I use it as a guide to constantly remind myself because my brain was not fixed.... Just make sure you're not getting into those munchy habits (snacking)....That is so hard to break because I sometimes do that...Ughhhh Anyhow, just do your workouts....you must in order to keep up your weight loss...I know, we're all on this together....

Hey U!!!! 

It's better to throw out the dang scale.  I am trying, but it cost me waaaay tooooo much $$$$$$.  So, I had my kids hide it from me.

I personally try to check every morning so i can be honest with myself.
