Topic: RE: Checking in with everyone
Hello my love!
I'm so sorry I've been away.  I've been in Mexico for ten days.  I feel so awful that I've been away from here.

You said exactly what I've said to so many!! You can cover that loose skin with clothes!  I have some before plastic surgery pix and most people can't even tell.  A good bra and some tight jeans will do wonders.  Most people really don't look so hot totally nude in the light anyway.  You can be long winded any day you'd like.  I love the catch up and it seems like yesterday when you were having your surgery!
Big hugs, Y
p.s. If I lived closer and could ski well, I'd go with you!

Topic: RE: Your Scale and You
I go back and forth, but I do not get upset with fluations and I am not obsessed with it either.  When I am weighing daily, I only weigh in the mornings after going to the bathroom.  Every blue moon I will step on the scale at night just to see is the difference is still 4 pounds.

Topic: RE: Your Scale and You
The weighing in has always been a difficult one for me. I used to make sure I had "light " clothes on whenever I was at weigh****chers or a doctors office. At home I would do the ritual first thing in the morning,use the restroom and no clothes. I was bad at one point and would hop on the scale several times a day. The scale would dictate what my mood would be for the day. It didn't matter how hard I had been working on my health....it was all about the number. My husband even removed the scale from our house for almost a year I was getting so bad. Right now I am 11 months out and weigh myself(first thing in the morning) once a week on Tuesdays. I really fight the urge to check daily.  Of course this is just me. Others may find it quite helpful to weigh daily. To each his own as long as it helps you stay on goal and healthy.
