    Wow--- Its really funny to read this bc I just expressed my frustation at myself for reading the scale everyday. I do 55 minutes of Jillian Michaels' workouts and stay within my calorie goals and apparently this week (because I am weighing everyday-- shame on me!) I am losing nothing.

    BUT NOW I get it. Thanks and I am KEEPING oN GOING.

    This is great for me just now - I have been consistently loosing just over a lb a week for the last 8 weeks or 10 weeks ...and then suddenly half a pound in 2 weeks...Haha the dreaded plateau. I have had 3 compliments this week and started running 2 weeks ago. I feel great! Obviously I wish the scales felt as good as me, but I know that is a small part (Humph...kick....moan....) Good luck everyone with your lying, cheating bathroom partner. Fickle things! Can't with live them....but certainly I couldn't live without it!! It had better be kinder to me next Friday.....OR ELSE!!!!!

    thanks for posting this. I decided a couple weeks ago to only weigh in once a month. So far it's been so freeing

    This article is awesome - keep it for whenever someone complains they haven't lost any weight on the scales for a few weeks, or think they lost 5lbs of fat overnight

    Excellent read.

    I am one of those who weigh daily, but I understand so many things can affect the numbers shown.
    I weigh daily out of curiosity, not to be trapped by the numbers.

    Yep me too.
