I AM A LIAR! PLEASE READ PROFILE

YESTERDAY I UPDATED MY PROFILE BUT WAS NOT TRUTHFUL.  I FEEL LIKE A JERK OF THE FIRST ORDER.

PLEASE GO BACK, IF YOU CARE TO, AND RE-READ WHAT I ADDED EARLIER TODAY. 

ADDITION IS AT THE VERY BOTTOM.

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO LET ME KNOW YOUR FEELINGS, NO MATTER WHAT THEY ARE.  I FEEL PRETTY LOUSY ABOUT MYSELF RIGHT NOW AS I ALWAYS CONSIDERED MYSELF AN HONEST PERSON.  BUT, I FEEL GOOD THAT I STRAIGHTENED UP IN TIME TO BE HONEST AGAIN WITH YOU ALL.

THANKS.

HUGGS,

No flaming here!!!  We've all played tricks with the scales at one time or another.  Just go on from here.  I can tell by reading all your posts that you are a very kind hearted person....  We've all played games with our weights at one time or another!!!  I know you're going to get to goal this year.  I will be glad when I can go have a consult regarding my pani.  It's driving me nuts already and I have a ways to go.  I have began a fund and hopefully since I paid cash for surgery this year I will get a pretty large tax refund and can add it to my plastics fund.  I'm hoping I can afford it.  I might get lucky and get a medical tummy tuck but I'm thinking that since my insurance didn't pay for the WLS there is no way they will even consider the pani.  I have began documenting my problems with the rashes etc every time I go to the doctor.  Dr. Walton wanted me to go on and see a plastic surgeon for a consult pretty soon.  I WANT IT GONE.  I didn't think I would care if I just got this weight off but I will NEVER get to goal and look good in clothes without it!!!  Aren't we vain???  (I didn't use to be)  LOL  Have a wonderful weekend Pammie!

Pam, that's why I don't weigh at home-I can't help but fidget and fudge and then plan for how I could make it better tomorrow.  Therein lies the madness for me-so I just weigh when I go to the doctors, and that's it.  It is what it is.

 

 

You get no flaming from me, dear!!! The numbers are a battle ground of their own. I am not weighing at home. The only number I care about even a tiny little bit is my BMI and even then...when I get to heaven I don't think St. Whoever (insert your own personal belief here) is gonna ask to see me on the scale or ask me what size I wear. We humans are fallible. So you made a tiny little mistake...forgive yourself and go on. You are forgiven.

I just love  you!!!  LOL!  That sounds like something I would do!  You know, I am thrilled that your life is such that you actually are able to worry about something like the scales.  I'm sure a few months ago this would not have even been on your radar. At least things are getting more back to normal for you.  No flaming from me, I am proud of you.

We have all done it and it seems to be a catylst for you to recommit to things and get to that goal. We love you and wouldn't flame ya at least not to bad. Take care.

I hate to admit it, but I do the same thing! I'll push the scale around to different parts of the floor, weigh, move it, weigh again. It's kinda funny, the weight usually doesn't differ by more than 1.5 to 2lbs, but for some reason I have to find the spot on the floor that makes me weigh the lightest!

I'm a few days behind but I just had to reply to this one!  I have a digital scale that I never trust the first reading so I have to move it around to several different spots and I kind of average it out. 

But I know exactly what your are talking about with adjusting the scale.  We've all done it at some point or another.

I did the same thing -- moving the scale around.  One spot on the floor, it weighs over 5 lbs lighter.  The linoleum in the bath has squares on it, so I found a "neutral" place on the floor where I think is fairly accurate.  Anyway I put the scale on the same lines, same squares every time now.  Sorry, but don't consider you a liar at all!!!!  You are a great person.  I am so happy for your weight loss, and the miracle of your husband's transplant.  I would say you are doing something right!  Michael

Michael -  thanks for your kind and understanding words.  It really does take someone who has been where we have all been to understand why we do what we do sometimes doesn't it?  Your "scale story" brightened my morning.  All the best to you in the new year.
