    When I first started, before I joined MFP, I gained 8 lbs!! I'm trying to get rid of those now, I'm not totally sure what I was doing wrong, but I'm doing a lot better now :smile:

    I hate my scale too! My boyfriend was tired of me being cranky and hid it on me! I have just started too and it is so hard to see if I am loosing. Feel free to add me! Sometimes I just like to rant like you too!

    This is why I have my hubs hide the scale and only weigh in once a month.

    Yes, we all must learn, that ALL scales are inherently EVIL! They will mess with our deepest feelings of insecurity and TAUNT us for eternity :devil:

    I understand totally. Remember that working out will add on muscle and work off fat, and you will actually be thinner, even though the muscle weighs more than fat.

    Sometimes I think scales are made to torment people. I will swear that they stick at a certain weight. :) Don't let it discourage you.

    I only weight in once / week and I picked first thing Wednesdays, right out of bed.. Allows me to "cheat" a bit on the weekends and still burn those calories off before I step on the scale. If you are exercising and maintaining a small calorie deficit the weight will come off. In my case it comes off a lot slower than it goes on. The calorie deficit is important but so is what you consume, a low calorie diet of snickers bars sounds yummy but will kill your weight loss.
