    Probably not necessary, but definitely nice to have. Just make sure you use it then it actually becomes worth it.

    A steamer to encourage you to eat veggies. NECESSITY.

    Scales to monitor weight loss to encourage you to lose more. NECESSITY.

    Smoothie maker? I'm not a fan of smoothies but if I was, I'm sure I'd say YES. :smile:

    As was said above, just make sure you use them in front of your fiancee! :happy:

    You'll love your steamer! I buy fresh veggies and steam them all the time. They taste sooo much better than any other way you cook them. Have you ever had the steamed veggie medley at a restraunt , like Applebee's? It's just like that. You will not regret it! And how on earth would you get by without a scale?!

    Absolutely worth it. Like the others said, use them in front of your fiance. I'll bet when he sees that you're actually using your new purchases and sees the result in your weight loss that scowl will turn into a big smile. I recently bought a blender to make smoothies and I have a scale that I bought right after I started with this site. I don't have a steamer though. Maybe that'll be my next purchase. :bigsmile: Good luck to you.

    Is it worth it to get healthy and avoid major health issues down the road?

    Believe me, what you paid for those items is nothing compared to the money you could be dropping in medicines, doctor bills, etc. if you don't get healthy!

    And smoothies are great for you, too! I have recently discovered them and am now a HUGE Smoothie fan! Fruit smoothies are great ways to get in both your dairy needs and fruit each day.

    It is all worth it if you look at them as an investment in you losing weight and getting healthy. It is up to you whether you use them or not.

    You should check your weight every morning- it keeps you from scoffing down bad foods when in the back of your head, you know you will have to weigh yourself, and see the consequences.
