    I just took my kitties to the vet so they are weighed. Onyx came in at 5.6 pounds and Jingles came in at 9.2. 56loymp434r8.jpg

    that calico is beautiful!

    She turns 14 this year we are awaiting her AARP card in the mail :D The vet seems to think she will outlive us all. The kitten is 5 months.

    She is a long haired calico.

    I fully support the kitty derailing!

    This is a 3-cat household. A long haired calico named Charlie, a tabby named Snickers, and our recent addition a tuxedo named Simon.

    And yes, they can all get up on the tables, too. The only place they're not allowed is on the kitchen counters. :)

    Speaking of super bad kitties in the kitchen -- here's mine.

    After the glass on my cabinet broke we left it for a while since it seemed non urgent and being able to reach in was kind of convenient. But kitty demonstrated that that wasn't the best idea.

    You can see why I could never call myself a "clean" eater!

    And I don't care one way or another if people weigh their food. It just annoys me when they insist that they're only eating 1300 calories but are not losing weight, yet are not weighing their food. Safe to admit that their eyeballing skills suck then. If your eyeballing skills are great, good for you, but we don't all have that super awesome skill.

    i weigh my food.

    i do not weigh my cats.

    My cats weigh themselves. It was especially fun when I had a talking scale. Suddenly this voice would come from the kitchen saying "You weigh 13.6 lb". Here is Hector, the kitty that loves weighing himself:

    And to be fair, here is his sister, Mika who does not really like knowing her weight (she is actually on the lower side of her best weight):

    ...And baby Emma who's nearly 16. Her tongue doesn't permanently stick out like out, only when she's super relaxed.

    Um I don't weigh anything use cups, volume measurements, go off the packages for calorie info, sometimes I just eyeball it, and had no issue losing weight... Have no issue maintaining weight. Not everyone estimates so badly they need to weigh everything... So many of you act like you can't have success unless you weigh everything like its the only way. Funny how I still managed to lose without having to do that...

    Meh. I don't weigh my food either. I was able to lose weight without it, and am now maintaining with that method.
    However, for the vast majority of people who come on here and post about weight loss stalling, the number one reason they are not able to lose is because of logging inaccuracies. I almost NEVER mention the fact that I don't weigh my food, because it wasn't something I did to feel superior to people who do weigh their food. In fact, I just didn't know a scale was such a useful tool until I started lurking the forums. I told myself that if I ever did hit an unexplained plateau, or felt like I needed to tighten up my logging, the scale would be the first thing I would do. I just never ended up needing that. But... I probably could have hit my goal weight faster, and maintained more easily, if I did weigh my food, and I almost always ask people if they are using a food scale and recommend it to folks just starting out.

    Pretty sure none of the people who were suggesting using a food scale were doing so to feel superior or to judge those that don't - unlike you - whose sole purpose with your comments was to belittle those who do weigh their food.

    Thank you soooo much for telling me what my sole intention was! Then go back and read the comments of the poster that was criticizing someone quite condescendingly for logging in ounces and volume measurements.

    And I don't feel superior for being able to lose weight without weighing everything I eat, on the contrary it's those that weigh that act like its the only acceptable way to do so. Just read through this entire thread or many others. I'll gladly joust them off their high horse while riding mine.

    Context. That poster was criticizing someone else for eating packaged food and using the bar scanner.

    If she's going to throw stones about "lowest common denominators", it's only fair to point out that she's being hypocritical.

    You weren't calling out people for using the bar scanner, were you? What I said didn't apply to you.

    I just caught all the pet derailing. Sadly, we have no pets. But I so wish I had pictures to contribute.
