 Hello, and congrats at ur successful weight loss journey. I've just begun. Had the gastric sleeve on 5/23/12, weight 281 and 22 days later am now 258. I'm totally happy with my surgery, just wish I'd done it sooner. I find myself being very impatient though and am weighing myself EVERY SINGLE DAY!!! Ugh! I know that's not good and plan on removing my scale out my house so I'd be forced to weigh myself weekly at the local supermarket. How often did u weigh yourself and did it encourage or discourage you in doing so?

Congrats! this is a very dedicated life and well worth it. I been a scale addict since before I had my surgery.. and after it was worse wtih getting on not only daily, but everytime I went to the bathroom.. lol.. Then my St bernard laid on my scale and broke it.. bought another.. I buy the digital glass ones.. love them..well she would sleep on them.. broke another one.. so it eased my habit if the scale..now I have not weighed my self daily... scale broke again..haha.. they cost ya know..and I go crazy not knowing .. I believe it encouraged me as I kept seeing the numbers drop..BUT..when I stalled it created a big stress..and the stalls WILL happen.. our bodys are catching up and are like..hey.. I need a break.. so do not get too upset.. I got frantic.. I drove many ppl nuts..but..thanks to ppl here and some very dear friends they kept my head straight..and do not feel hesitant to get on here and let your stress out..or panic..we are here for that.. I was on here alot in the begining..but this past year I had alot of personal issues with my son and my health non WLS related and just did not get on..or got on and read posts but nothing from me.. ..anyways.. back to you.. do not let anyone tell you your doing something bad by getting on the scale if it makes you happy.. I mean..we all go through obsessions and it will die out eventually..well for many I know it has... go get on that scale and be happy..lol.. your not hurting anything..maybe driving your family nuts but your going through a big change and this is a journey where we love our scales! best of luck in everything :)
