gingerjane 5 Posted March 25, 2010 I weigh excessively because it helps to keep me on track. I've always been that way. If I quit doing it, then I'll go back to old habits or just say "oh my pants aren't tight - they shrunk" when in reality, they didn't. My waist expanded. LOL! I keep my scale in my bathroom and every morning it comes out. I have the Weight Watchers scale that's glass and digital. LOVE that thing! It was like $25 at costco.

vlp1968 83 Posted March 25, 2010 I weigh myself once a week. I'ts tempting some mornings but I have found I like the surprise each week. I would go crazy with flucuations if I weighed myself every day. However once I loose all my weight (42 pounds to get to goal) I plan on weighing myself everyday. If I see more then a 2-3 pound gain I know I need to reverse gears. Maybe go on liquids for 2-3 days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sweetbean70 2 Posted March 25, 2010 Howdy! I only get weighed when I go for a fill or some other dr appt. I have been measuring my progress by how my clothes fit me and/or how my rings fit me. I do not have a working scale in the house b/c I know I would determine what kind of day I am going to have by the number on the scale. I know that I also have a tendency to think..."Hey! I've lost ___lbs so it will be ok for me to eat that hot fudge sundae that has been taunting me unmercifully!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontgoggilme 0 Posted March 26, 2010 since i bought my scale, i've been weighing myself everyday looking for lower numbers. it's like some said... like an obsession of sorts. i wanna see a lower number every morning and sometimes i do and it's great. sometimes i don't and it's a little disappointing but i try not to let it get me down. what i need to do is stop weighing and start exercising. i'm being a little slow about starting on that. i need to get moving!!!!!
