Makes No Sense! HELP!

Sure it'll move if we jump up & down on it....it'll move UP & DOWN!  LOL  I only want that sucker going in ONE direction!  LOL  So I'll just stand still and curse!  LMAO  HUGS  Jeanine

I think our  mind and body just loves to play tricks on us because we abused it for so long.  It's like the cells pull in the extra water and hang on to it.  Who knows. I was stuck at just over 300 forever and was never happier to see it move.  This weekend when I got on the scale and it moved again, I started doing a dance on the scale and my husband hollered at me to stop because I might get it out of adjustment.  I thought it was funny!  He's having an affair with our scale I tell you.  He's on it every morning in his undies.  When I hop on it in the afternoon, he always asks why I am weighing in the afternoon.  I think it's funny. Never had problems with the  eyelashes.  Hair's falling out pretty good now, but I'm over it.  I've got enough so it doesn't bother me any more.  I was devastated when it started, but my stylist said I've got a ton and it's not a big deal. Now this morning, the scale teetered just at 290 and I told it to just go down to the 280's but it didn't listen to me.  The ladies in the locker room must have thought I was crazy.

I think you're right about the cells!!  You cracked me up about your hubby!  I could understand WLS'ers being obsessive about the scale...but him??  LOL  Hey...its better than ignoring it.  I am really trying not to pay as much attention to the scal enumber as I am about my clothes.  My 16's are getting loose already....so that "cup is still half full" no matter how much I whine about those last few pounds that will put me in the CC .  I know I'll get there....but like so many things in life, it just may not be in MY time frame! LOL  This journey is about SO MUCH MORE than just weight loss, isn't it!  Maybe the ladies in the locker room don't understand you....but I sure do!!  LOL   HUGS  Jeanine

I remember going through that very thing. It was TOUGH. I actually had my DH take the scale away for a month...low and behold I managed to drop 20lbs! So my suggestion is to stay off the scale awhile and just concentrate on doing all the right things. Then, step on the scale and see where you're at.

Thank you Amy...I know you're right. My scale is an official MD scale...kinda hard to move around because of its size. But yes...I am doing my best to focus on eatiing right & exercising and let the chips fall where they may.  I appreciate your comment.  HUGS  Jeanine
