    Does anyone else have a name for their scale? My old scale was Herman. It was very therapeutic to flip it off after no, or negative results after a week and yell "F*** YOU HERMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!"

    Then, I would go downstairs and have my coffee and watch Food Network.

    My monday rituals are very fun :)

    Love it!! Totally thinking of a name for mine now!!!

    Thanks Jason,
    I totally do. This was intended to be more of a humorous post.. I do know ALOT about health/fitness and diet.. Just thought it was so strange to actually go DOWN during the day :)

    Oh, and as for being obsessive, I am... And I'm willing to accept that. I was severely anorexic as a teen, years of therapy, and up and down a hundred pounds through babies, and surgeries, and an abusive husband... I learned bif I weigh daily, it keeps it in perspective for me... It keeps me on a healthy pattern instead of not realizing i've gained 20 lbs and going into anorexic mode. May not make sense for others, and that's OK. My therapist at the time says if it keeps me healthy who cares about the number obsession... I've taken off 90lbs this way and just fluctuates the last 20-30 depending on myvlife at the time, which is what I am trying to manage now.
    Not everyone works the same, but I think we have to stay open minded to people's methods, even if they are neurotic, if the end goal is a healthier life :)

    Just wanted to clarify luvey, I should have put an "lol" after I wrote obsessive. I wasn't intending to insult, more so tongue in cheek. :flowerforyou:

    OK, well.. Weighed this morning... I'm down a total of 10.2lbs in 3 days! Not hugely excited as I know I gained at least 5 of that in the last week in fluids and I've made a MAJOR lifestyle change. So I'll be excited in 4lbs. But I can definitely already see it in my fingers (my rings come off again!! Yay!!), and tummy.
