The Scale Calls My Name

Does anyone have a problem with the scale? I mean not the number it shows but how many times you use it? I get on that thing every morning. I want to stop but I almost get anxiety just thinking about not knowing what I weigh??? Any suggestions?

    Hide it. There is absolutely no need to weigh yourself more than once a week.

    It calls my name too, but I call it names back. ALL of the names I call it are banned from the forum. HIde it, it will be your undoing!

    I had to get mine out of the house. I weigh myself 15+ times a day otherwise. Very bad for my sanity. I weigh-in at my doctor's office for the most part, sometimes at work (I work in a hospital).

    I no longer use my scale at all. 99% of the time, all it did was frustrate me and demotivate me. So I boxed it up and stuck it under my bed. I will know when I'm losing weight based on how my clothes fit and how I look. It had to be done after years of torture with that thing.
  • I'm the same way...lol...i hide it and if stepped on more than once a week each time i put a qarter in my penny bank...sounds dumb but trust me it works...you get tired of putting money in that thing:)

    Unfortunately I know what you mean. Sometimes I use it even more than once a day. I really need to stop. Good luck to you :)

    I use to use it in the morning and at night when I was starving myself and thinking that was the way to lose weight. I would get on it in the night to have a idea of how much I would weigh in the morning....just pure sabotage!!! ugh
