Why are so many wonderful losers...

So obsessed with their weight until they reach depression. Ok I am pre opt. I will be having surgery in a month or so. I have promise myself I will never purchase a scale until I reach my goal weight that being determined by my "over all" dress size. I mean is it not the inches that counts anyways? I have heard sooo many stories with post opts who have lost all this weight (at least 100+) and still complain gaining a few pounds or not seeing the scale move at all. Why? Especially with women, we gained/lose water retention so often. I'm just so happy for folks out there who have changed their life with WLS or wieght loss for that matter. However, it breaks my heart to see so many out there obsessing about the scale moving until, I promise to weigh myself, only during my check-ups with my doctor. I will refuse to see how much I weigh. Is this possible is there any one out there who did not watch and weighed themselves daily? How are you doing and please can you describe how much more rewarding it is not obsessing about your weight everyday. Again, I'm proud of each and everyone who has been determine to make such an improvement in their lives. Good luck to all of us :0)
