    best way to get at that damn scale is to adjust it before you begin...move it back 20lbs or so..then come back later that day step on it without looking and just look at the final number :)

    I like your train of thought dj...hmmm, I have a digital scale so I don't know if it will work though. Maybe if I hang on the towel rack to hold myself up a bit the number will go lower....I could probably do it that way. :laugh:

    Don't think you got a whole lot to worry about anyway

    Hold as many helium balloons as can fit in the room with you.

    What kind of rope/string should I use? Should I stick with the little string that's usually handed out with them? Maybe I could use some type of twine? Or would that be extra weight added on?? Should I use a specific color balloon? 'Cause I know that the dye to color those balloons can't be weightless!

    This is all so confusing! :sad:

    Sewing thread, very short sewing thread. Balloons can be any color, you just need a really big room so more balloons will fit. If you can rent an outdoor stadium that would be perfect.

    Use a netti-pot to clear out those sinuses. And an enema to clear out other parts.

    ...Oh, and you should only weigh in when there is a new moon, because clearly that is when the moon exerts the least gravitational force... :-D

    shi7, I totally didn't know this! Awesome sauce!

    I think you want the opposite - so weigh yourself on the full moon. If the moon is exerting gravitational force, then it is pulling you away from the Earth.

    You can always drink some olive oil the night before.

    Weigh your breasts separtely (plop them on the scale alone). Then weigh yourself and deduct the amount your breast weigh. Afterall, the breast weight doesn't count and should be in your favor. :wink:

    OMG, I'm dying, can't...breathe. I have to add, I weighed myself last week, farted, then weighed again just for sh**s and giggles, and it went down a pound. True story. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    I like this!! While we're at it, weigh your head separately, and deduct at least 75% of that weight for your brain. Your brain shouldn't count either.

    When I first started MFP we had a rickety old scale that had to be dialed in to zero before starting every time! I had no experience and of course did not go looking for tips, so I just jumped on the scale with all my clothes on. My second weigh in was using my sister's digital scale at her place, but still fully clothed.

    Now I am starting week four and just got a digital scale. When I weighed in today, I was only wearing my socks, bra and Tshirt. Not sure how much they weigh, but my total loss came in over four pounds!

    Next weigh-in, I will go for naked, but this will make me a little sad because that will be the end of my 'easy' weight loss! lol

    I was gonna say blow your nose, there is so much in those sinus cavity's. but someone said it before me. So hubby says, make sure all your toes are cleaned out, as toe jam really weighs you down. I lost 180 lbs in one day via divorce. Then I lost 40 lbs off my body my 1st semester in collage, and more by the time I graduated. FYI, they put all your class's at opposite ends of the campus, never near each other. lol So go to College.
