Scale Hell Challenge! Did You Make It?

Hey BOTT's 

Well it's been almost 4 weeks since we committed to getting out of Scale Hell...  How did you do?

If you are able to get on the scale everyday and the scale is a positive tool for you then this challenge was not for you. 

I found this to be an interesting challenge for me.  After about 2 1/2 weeks I was dying to get on the scale.  My clothes felt good and I had lost inches, so I just knew I had done really well but for some reason that was not enough.  I needed that number on the scale to put the exclamation point on my "success".  Why?   Years of conditioning......the scale was the end all for how I was doing in my weight control.  My DH didn't cave and didn't give me the scale.  

Low and behold the feeling past and now I really don't care what it says come the end of the month.  I am feeling good about what I did, what I accomplished and now the scale will be an additional tool in my new life style...not the indicator of how my day will be, not the "only" indicator of success or failure 

Thanks for joining me 

Now come and join me in the Get Your Sexy Back Spring Challenge  

Take care,

Right now I am still at a weight (426) that my scale just groans when I get on it lol. I can't weigh unless I make a trip to my PCP. I will stop by there in about 3 weeks to see if I made my 25 pound loss goal. 75 pounds and I can weigh at home.

I hear from members that when they weigh only at the doctor's office they are so successful.....

Take care,

I've made it, but I'm ready for a weigh-in!!!!!! My clothes are still fitting well so I think I'm doing ok right now! Not much time to eat and when I do its on the run so maybe that's helping. I've been sticking to high protein stuff when I get the chance to eat. Glad to hear you're doing well!!!!!!!
