    My scale's battery has been dead for at least a month now. I have NO desire to replace it. I want to be stronger, not just "skinnier." And if what they say (muscle weighs more than fat) is true, the scale won't help me there.

    You look fantastic. Thank you for posting the pics. I am somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 lbs from goal. The scale doesn't move. I know that how much I weigh isn't that important but how I look is. I just didn't realize that a body could change so much without losing weight.

    You have done great! Very inspiring. This helps me because I am the same way and people won't believe me when I tell them how much I weigh. Gone down several sizes and only lost about 10 lbs. Just getting more compact and defined!

    I know we rely so much on numbers. I was getting so frustrated... I went from a size 22 to a size 14 jeans, and only lost 1lb. Yet, I want to see those bloody numbers go down on the evil scale.

    Well done! by the way.

    Ok first I LOVE your post! I am on day 60 of P90X. My scale went up by 5 pounds then I lost 6 pounds and have found that I want to break my scale. I am eating clean( mostly salads with lean proteins fish, chicken, tuna fish) I was upset because I am working very hard ( missed 3 days but had a kidney stone). Thanks for the encouragement!
