    Just stop weighing yourself that often...unless you are taking notes throughout the day to see when the best time to weigh is. Seriously...it will only lead to unnecessary stress and anxiety (and bad moods!). Aim for just once a week, preferably in the morning after you pee (first thing).

    Good luck staying off the blasted thing.

    Throw your scale out! Don't make mecomee and hide it. This is the ED talking and making you crazy. Don't weigh yourself every day and if you must only do it once a day. You know you're just feeding it otherwise (hug)

    Thanks, Mel. :):)

    I decided that even though I WANT to weigh myself right now, I'm not going to.

    I'm also going to haul my scale back down to my basement again so it is a PITA to get out to weigh myself. That's what I did before that worked for a few weeks when I promised I would only weigh myself once per week. I'll go back to that. :)
