So, we're moving.....granted not until the first weekend in March, but as of last night, my scale is packed! I weighed in a couple of days ago officially, and had lost another 2.5 pounds, so I was really proud of myself. however, with the scale in the bathroom, staring at me every day, I was weighing myself every day out of some form of morbid curiosity. It was too much.......so I packed it, taped the box, and buried it downstairs! Now my goal is to continue on the path I've been successful with the past month, and lose another 5 pounds by the time I am able to break out the scale again after the 5th of March. Wish me luck!!!!!!!!!!

    That sounds like a great idea! I keep weighing myself every day even though I know I shouldn't but I just can't help myself. Then I get annoyed at the results!

    That's great!

    I've got mine in the linen closet sans batteries as I have an obsession with multiple daily weigh-ins.

    Best of Luck! You can do it!

    Exactly! I'd be annoyed, even tho I knew it was ridiculous that I was even weighing myself to begin with. So yeah, it's gone now!

    Even thought I'm not moving, I think I will pack up my demon scale Too! I'm so tired of all the hard work I put in and to not be losing is discouraging! I was weighing myself once a week, now it's been every day. Not good for me! Bye Bye scale!
  • You can judge your progress by the way your clothes fit. I've heard that muscle weighs more than fat, so sometimes if you exercise alot, you may not even show a loss, but your clothes will fit better. I weigh every now and then, but I'd rather judge my progress with how I feel and how my clothes fit.
