    Hello,

    My name is Nici and I used to be a scale addict.

    I took the entire month of November off last year and while the first week was torture, the second week was better and by the fourth week I was over the scale and actually had to put a reminder on my phone so I would actually weigh in. :laugh:

    Ever since I tend to weigh in randomly, but March is double workout challenge (Ripped in 30 and 6 Week 6 Pack) and I'm really looking forward to the final results on April 1.

    I, too, am a scale addict... I weigh myself at LEAST three times a day on three, four, sometimes five scales at a time... it's ridiculous, it only serves to make me upset bc weight fluctuates so much, and I know I ought to stop it... but I can't help it!! :(

    I have a strange urge to go weigh myself, again.
    Two weeks...how can you make it that long...
    I'll try, but it won't be easy.

    Hee. I know right? It seems like forever. Shouldn't we start with smaller increments? Like, not weighing every 24 hours? We could do that and then move into 48 hours and then SLOWLY into a week and then eventually into two weeks? Right? Wouldn't be better??? *twitch twitch*

    I was on my way to becoming a scale addict. Now, I keep it hidden until Mondays, when I weigh myself.

    Out of sight, out of mind.

    I so need this! I weigh on Mondays officially but I'm on the scale every day! I need to stop it too cause I have been working out and thought I'd have a loss but yesterday and today I was up 2 lbs since Monday. I will vow to only weigh in on Mondays like I'm supposed to!

    I'm joining!! I weigh myself almost everyday and it needs to stop. I begin weight training on Tuesday, so I will just be tortured if I keep weighing.

    GET RID OF THE SCALE!!!!!!!!

    you should worry about inches lost rather than lbs lost!

    I was ADDICTED to the scale too, and was letting it really get to me, that my Fiance had to hide it from me!

    I am a scale addict too!! And I also want to get rid of the scale for 2 weeks. My fiance doesn't live with me at the moment, otherwise, I would have asked him to hide it. I hate knowing where is is.

    Today is Monday March 26th 2012. I vow I will not weigh in again till Monday April 9th 2012.

    Do you have a close friend you could leave the scale with for two weeks?
