    Hey everyone,
    I've ditched my scale. Well mostly because i'm moving and it hasn't budged below 163 and I was getting obsessed. I only WI once a week but it was driving me crazy all week and to only step on it and say the same number. So I'm convinced it's broke:) so it's in the trash now.

    I think without the scale I will be better at focusing on just me and my goals as far as eating and working out and feel like if I do that then the weight will come off so no more scale for me.

    Dont' know when the next time I will be able to weigh as we are in the middle of moving from Spain back to the US. We go into a hotel next week then when we get back to the US straight to Disney for a week. So i'm thinking somewhere around November 3rd which is great as thats a month and it gives me to time to really focus on how i'm feeling.

    Finally got around to weighing/measuring myself this morning!

    Weight: 118 lbs-this is actually about .5lb heavier than a month ago but I've been lifting pretty heavy so that doesn't me.

    Chest: 31.5" Boo-this is the one that went down the most since last month and is NOT a part that I wanted to see shrink at all. LOL.

    Waist (I measure just bellow my belly button b/c that's where I want to see a change): 31" (.5" down)

    Hip: 34" (up about an inch but feels firmer, so I'm guessing it's muscle)

    Thighs: 22.2" (.2" down)

    BF: still the same (19%) BUT the caliper measurement was 1mm less than it was last month so it didn't go down a teeny, tiny bit; just not enough to change the percentage YET!
  • Okay, I actually went a whole month without the scale! Went to husband this morning and asked him to get it so I could weight myself. I was really mixed about doing this since I had dropped a pant size this month and clothes were fitting so much better. I was afraid that if the scale didn't show a great number, I would be discouraged. But......I was just too curious. YIPPEEE!!!! 9 pounds for the month. Added fuel to the fire. Gave him back the scale and will go another month and hopefully have better results.
