deckedout 0 Posted August 12, 2006 I am also extremely obsessed! Does anyone else notice that they lose weight AFTER a shower? Yep, .5 lbs sometimes. Also, a hot bath. Somedays I will take it anywhere I can get it. We did hide the scale today. It is too much of a disappointment when you exercise, eat right, drink your Water, and gain 2 lbs. :omg: now, unless I cheat, it is once a week, on Friday mornings. My DH says that way we will have worked all week and it is before the weekend! 2 weeks til my first fill, hopefully then the scale will take a swift dive. :nervous Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

avilla 1 Posted August 12, 2006 I know exactly where everyone is coming from...I am now trying to break my addiction to the scales...It can be depressing some times to step on it every morning with such a small if any change...I am on my 3rd day of not weighing in and am trying to go till the 27th before I step on that scale so I can be totally excited with the loss (I hope)...Breaking the habit might as well have a 12 step program Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NatesMommy 0 Posted August 12, 2006 I have a current scale addiction also. maybe 3 - 4 times a day! After bathroom breaks , after meals , in the beging of the day at the end of the day. Its crazy but I have been at a stand still for the past couple of days and it making me nuts!!!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisah25 3 Posted August 12, 2006 I did have that addiction. However, when you have been REALLY good and it does not move or GOES up..... You are asking for trouble.... No I weigh evey 2 weeks.... PERIOD. I've heard that, but I get into trouble when I don't weigh in every day. I've learned to be OK with the not moving/going up when I know I've been eating well. But when I'm not eating well, I avoid the scale, and go right on up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boo Boo Kitty 3 Posted August 13, 2006 Ok....everytime I try to lose weight, I become addicted to the scale. I hop on at least 3 times a day to see where I am....even though I KNOW it hasn't moved. LOL When I did Atkins, I used the keto-sticks every time I pee'd to make sure they still turned pink. Does anyone else get like this? I am getting next week, and don't want the scale to run my life. I might just have to throw it away and drive somewhere to weigh myself. I weigh myself 3-5 times a day, I know it is becoming a problem. I expect it to go down from morning to mid-morning, dinner whatever. I assume it should move down constantly and when it doesn't move I am a wreck.... I don't know how to beat it. I have to have it. I think it is the only thing getting me through this.... I am glad and saddened I am not the only one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
