The scale sucks.. even I get discouraged (pics)

I have been sooo good for weeks now.. working my butt off eating well and hitting the gym and I haven't seen much progress on the scale.. F U scale.. I do see it in my face my clothing etc.. so instead of drowing my scale sorrows in cheetos I'm going to keep trucking along and maybe March 1st I will see that stupid son of BEEP scale move..

There can be so many factors, I do know I am retaining fluid and I have to wait for my body to flu**** since I'm not taking my water pill anymore (dr said no more BOO!) I did have not high calorie meals but high sodium meals.. I could of lost 1 pound of body fat and gain two in muscle.. or my scale could be broken LOL .. the important is NOT giving up.... maybe next week I'll drop 7 pounds who knows..  a girl can dream..

My before Photo and a Photo I took last night.. reminds me I'm moving in the right direction even if it's taking FOREVER .. (it's really not but we all get frustrated at times)

 

You look fantastic! I agree with you about the stinking scales. They have a mind of their own, and they certainly don't work very well. On top of that they LIE! I am currently at our son's and his scales are really bad. I have no idea how accurate they are (probably not very) or how much I really weigh, compared to when I last weighed on mine a month ago. I have had ups and downs since then but since his scales are total liars I don't know anything. Hrmph! I don't even have a tape measure here..

In the beginning of my journey I only weighed at my doctors scale.. so i would go a month or 6 weeks before I jumped on a scale.. I think I may need to go back to that.

It's a roller coaster of emotion and I'm not strong enough..
I say DON'T jump on the scale (I'm not sure how long your at your sons) and keep making good choices.. get out there and get some physical activity going and hopefully by the time your home you will be happy with your own scale.

Good Luck :) 

you're gorgeous, I lover you, the end.   


 

You just came on here to change your ticker!! (*****) LOL 
I <3 ya too.. bunches!!

You look fantastic. 

The number on the scale will set the tone for my whole day.  1lb down and I am a happy girl.  2 up and I am a bitach

I say that I will only weigh once a week but I cannot help myself.  Especially if I have been very good, I want to see that lower number.  If I don't "watch out everyone"  Then I will take my crappy mood out on ususally the hubby. 

I think we need a photo day today to give us all hope.

You look totally awesome.  I am a newbie to the band and am at a plateau of -25 pounds but know that I have to work harder on my food choices in order to succeed..you go girl...you have come a LONG way and you are beautiful!

 You look AWESOME!!!!

toss the scale around if it will make you feel better.

But you have to know that no matter what the number, you're healthier than ever and every day you get a little better. You look fantastic too, so just shush your mouth!

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I did come on to change my ticker... LOL  *****
