How Can I Break My Scale Addiction?

[GonnaLoseIt 33]

Honestly, it has gotten to a bad point with me. I was weighing myself more then once a day, cut that back to once a day but I am constantly tempted to hop on the scale to see what it says. I have somehow managed to only weigh myself every other day for the past couple times. But even now I am feeling the temptation to weigh myself. I am obsessing over the numbers and want help in figuring out how to at the most weigh myself once a week.

I don't know if anyone can help me kick my scale addiction but I figure it can't hurt to ask.

Thanks!

Put it in your closet! Bring it out once or twice a week...I'm still trying to break the habit, but I've done pretty well now weighing weekly. I do cheat occasionally but nothing compared to when I weighed morning, noon, and at night it was INSANE!

yea this is a tough one. I weight daily when I wake up..but I RECORD my weight on a calendar only on Mondays. That way I can only use the "formal" number on the calendar for my tracking. In my head I've trained myself the monday number is the only one that counts...

I read on here where someone brought thier scale over to thier Mom's house.....lol. Closet does not work for me. I have asked my husband to hide it but when he seen me digging from room to room he gave up doing that.

Guilty...

I didn't weigh for like 6 months prior to surgery and now I jump on the scale every time I pee! It's ridiculous. I think I am going to put it in the closet.

I thougth I was the only one.....I was weighing myself every single time I walked into the bathroom. I too have gotten myself down to just in the mornings. I think because that is when I weigh the least. Makes me feel even better about my progress. I want to get to the point where I weigh just once a week.

If hiding it won't work, you could always try giving it away it a friend or family member and then only weigh yourself at their house once or twice a month.

Smashing the scale with a sledgehammer might be liberating.
