To continue the saga of my scale, I'm a little OCD and persistent at times. OK, really it is more of just me being stubborn. So I decided to do a little experiment. I put my two 6lb. hand weights on the scale. First reading I got - 12.2. Then 15.2. 15.2 again. And then finally 12.2. I was a little o_O at the results.

My conclusion - the scale is not the ultimate sayer of my happiness. No matter what, it is a guesstimate. What you weigh at one moment is never exactly what you weigh the next.

The end.

I've been reading a lot that the measuring tape is our best friend, because it never lies....have no idea what thread I read that on but it lets you know, even if you are losing little...at least your losing inches, which counts lol.

chrisdrager - Do you have your dress picked out? Can we see a pic of it? Can we can we, huh huh huh?! *beg*

(I really do miss the whole wedding planning thing. OK not all of it, but the dress shopping, definitely!!)

I despise scales too at times.. Ive been using my wii balance board with the Biggest Loser game.. I know Wii fit varies..

pink_and_shiny

April my Wii Fit board hates me. I never get a consistent reading from that thing.

For the Halloween parade and the tow trucks - are the trucks pulling floats, or are you more looking for ideas to dress the trucks themselves up? I love parades, hell, went to the Rose Parade consistently for the first 23 years of my life! Even marched in it once (go Gold Award Girl Scouts/Tournament Troop!).

Oh, and for H20...I think we should keep it since like you said, it stands for water. Also, it's how we met each other. It could also stand for "Hopping to Onederland", or something like that.

Were looking to decorate the trucks up themselves.. one will be a flat bed, one will be a semi tow truck, and one will be a small truck with a hook..

H20 Collage.. Who wants to be in the H20 Collage that Im going to do on Picnik and add to the website???
If you wanna be in the Collage.. What picture do you want me to use?? Attach your name.. Or Nick name.. Im having a hard time remembering everyone..

Feel free to add me. You can use my user name and icon pic you you like. I'm going to have to try and shoot some photographs of me tomorrow if I have time. Hopefully someday soon I'll have the guts to post it. (I just don't want anyone I might now to find out that I'm losing weight).

Haha. Sure, I'm new here so not 100% sure how to attach things. Will add a pic to my profile so you can see it there. :-)

And thanks for the warm welcome everyone. :-)

Chris - I took a look at your dress. It is wonderful!!

Welcome lbencomo!

Do you guys want to have a theme? The semi tow truck will be a big challenge, huh?! The flat bed might be cute as a little pumpkin patch with a scarecrow. The semi - maybe you can paint it up like a giant jack-o-lantern. And the small truck w/hook - uhm - maybe you can do something with a witches theme. Get a "cauldron" and put dry ice and water in it so that it emits mist, and hang that from the hook.

Thanks. I love it and can't wait to wear it. :-)

It's a bit of a small pic, so will come back after the wedding and post one of me in the dress.... :happy:

You can charge shipping if you need to, or not. Totally up to you. I'd really love to get this up and running! So of anyone is interested it's here -
