trizzy35 50 Posted August 9, 2011 Haven't had a scale in the house for about 2 years....now that surgery is over and I am home safe and sound, I am actually looking forward to going out and buying a scale today!!! It will still be depressing to see that astronomical figure, but oh how satisfying it will be to (hopefully) watch it go down...downnn....downnnnnnn...

ranoodle 6 Posted August 9, 2011 Imagine that, no fear of a scale anymore! That's great. I hope to get over my fear too shortly.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindaS 316 Posted August 13, 2011 OK, this sounds like a NSV (non scale victory) but since a scale is involved.... tough call. Either way, it is a cool thing to Celebrate. Thanks for sharing! I hope you learn to love jumping on the scale and seeing those numbers go down! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trizzy35 50 Posted August 13, 2011 Ha--YES!! I weigh myself in the morning and at night, and I am loving to see the weight drop! I got a digital scale, so at least it might be a little more accurate! My kids are loving it too--"oh, I'm 80 pounds, I'm 139.."etc... It is crazy though that I need to "lose" about 1 kid to be down to my goal weight! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindaS 316 Posted August 14, 2011 It is crazy though that I need to "lose" about 1 kid to be down to my goal weight! I have teenagers, and my youngest daughter weighs 115 pounds. I keep telling her I'm trying to lose her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indymom 132 Posted August 15, 2011 I actually ditched my digital scale (it never was accurate) and bought an old-fashioned one for $8. Of course it weighs perfectly! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MeMeMEEE 206 Posted August 15, 2011 yes some digital scales can be junk - I own two Tanita brand, they are awesome and always accurate - have had my oldest one for about 10 years I guess. Got the second one because it measures in .2 increments where original was .5. Tanita is the brand that weight watchers uses at their meetings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
