Are my scales broken or do I need glasses????

[Amberley 97]

I have been stuck at 123kilos (270 pounds) for about 9 days. Using myfitnesspal.com to track calories and exercising as instructed. My scales were staying as still as a deer in headlights. Have not been to upset as I have been losing inches and my clothes are fitting better. Today I got on the scale expecting the same results. Ugh???? Are the scales broken? Has old age finally hit my eyes? Do I need to see the doc about glasses??? I screamed at my husband to come downstairs. (He is a workout aholic and does not need to lose weight however he weighs in with me twice a week as support) He came downstairs and I pointed at the weigh in chart on the wall so that he could see his previous weight. (yep a wall chart that we record our weight on each weigh in. For me visibility is everything) I pushed him on the scales. He was exactly the same as last week. He looked at my crazed eyes and didn't say a thing. (smart man!!) He watched as I stepped on the scales.... 118.3 kilos (roughly 260 pounds)!!!!! Ugh? Is that even possible? We then weighed the dog. She had been to the vet last week so her weight was recorded on her exit papers. Yep she weighed close to the weight on her papers!! 10 pounds in 9 days? Have I lost the plot? Is it even possible? I don't care. I was so excited I immediately came on here and added it to my tracker. I am going to weigh in tomorrow despite it not being weigh in day just to see if it changes. For now my tracker shows the new weight. 48 pounds lost!! Things that weigh 48 pounds:

• a 15-foot canoe
  
• a 4-year-old child
  
• an average human leg
  
• a 13 inch television
  
• six gallons of Water

hahaha I love your list of things that weigh 48 pounds lol. Awesome visual. I am glad you are no longer carrying a canoe on your back

So, your ticker didnt change back, so I'm guessing the weight was actually correct.

[Amberley 97]

Actually 258 out now so need to update my ticker!!!

Great job, am looking forward to a big loss - one of these days, until then I am learning everyday and losing one step at a time.
