I finally bought my scale today. I started counting calories and regular exercise just last week. Well, apparently I am a TERRIBLE judge of my own weight!

The last time I was weighed was a few months ago, and I figured I was still around the same, maybe even more. So I joined here, put in 175 pounds as my starting weight. Seemed pretty simple.

Well.. my scale opened my eyes! I only weigh 163.8 pounds!!!! Holy cow, I was off by like 12 pounds!!! TALK ABOUT MOTIVATION RIGHT THERE!!! :)
