    i have a love/hate relationship with my scale. the last few weeks i loved it. This week, not so much. I think i become obsessed with the numbers on it but i just can't "break up with it" b/c then it seems the weight slowly creeps back on....what to do, what to do. LOL

    Yes I was getting on twice a day! And we all know how your body can fluctuate throughout the wave, like waves in the ocean!

    Funny I just also posted about my scale needing to disappear for a bit. It's not nice to me anyway.

    I'm with you all the way. Throw that scale out the window. Mine hasn't moved in over a month.

    $50 a shot + having to drive accross town? no thanks. Calipers can be just as inaccurate.

    I was waiting for the DEXA scan recommendation. At what, $100? The thing might be inaccurate but as long as it's CONSISTENTLY inaccurate, that's fine. Because I'm looking for the delta change.

    I wish I could join the no-scale movement but the last time I did, I gained 35 pounds! I absolutely love the philosophy behind it, but I know I too easily delude myself, lol. Plus, the way I carry extra weight, I have to gain a lot before it's really that noticeable. No scale is dangerous for me!

    For the love of God! Dont do it then!! :-)

    As of Monday mine is in the garbage lol

    I'm all for it...my scale is the Devil! :devil: I've now moved it under the love seat with the dust bunnies. I've started weighing every couple weeks to a month. Occasionally I hear it saying "Kim, psst Kim come here", I have to refuse. The day to day weight change literally was driving me CRAZY! I'd be happy, sad, thrilled, depressed etc... I love MFP good bad or otherwise I enter what I eat and so far so good when I do pull the Devil out, that number is SLOWLY but surly going down. :happy:

    Lol @ Dexa being accurate.

    Anyone serious would either get DEXA or Bod Podded.

    Here is a link to my video of me getting Bod Podded.

    Mind you I was measured via the multipoint caliper measurement under 10%.
