I know some people post pictures of skinny bikini models or even of themselves when they were thinner on their refrigerators to remind them of their goals... for me, those pictures would be covered by childrens art work, school menus, dr appt cards... I choose to place my scale right beside my refrigerator- to where I actually have to step over it to open the door. I'm just curious- where do you keep your scale?

In reality I'm not that into weighing myself (maybe once or twice a month- but the scale reminds me to watch what I eat) - for me this is more of a life journey (spiritual, mental and physical) than just a weight loss journey.

    Master Bathroom. I use it correctly but I too am on a life long journey and don't really care what it says at the moment. I know I am on the right track and will reach my goal and maintain it once I'm there.

    My scale is right by my front door. There isn't room for it in any of my tiny bathrooms and the bedrooms are carpeted... so the front entryway is the best spot. (It is also a good reminder to weigh before heading to the kitchen for breakfast!)

    I'm kind of like you, most of the time. I'm kind of on a life-long journey, and don't really weigh myself every day. I do weigh about once a week, on my Wii Fit. It's the only scale we own.

    Mine is in my bathroom. I weigh myself in the morning and sometimes in the evening. But I only use the weight from the morning as my checkin. I try not to weigh myself daily so that I don't get discouraged. I am more concerned about how I feel that my actualy weight.

    My scale is my nintendo wii it is in the basement and I weigh in every monday and usually some days during the week. I work in a restaurant whose calories are out of this world so for me to lose weight while working at this place is a very big accomplisment. so far I have lost 34 pounds in 11 weeks. there are so many temptations and that alone is the hardest thing for me, but hey Im doing it!!!

    Same here- I have a measuring tape in both bathrooms, my bedroom and the kitchen.... I am much more interested in the inches lost than the lbs gone.....

    I have mine leaning up against my computer desk. I put it away so I am not tempted to weigh myself more than once a week. I do hop on the scale at the gym, but there I am wearing my workout gear and a ton of sweat. My weekly weigh ins are done sans clothing.

    When I do weigh myself it is also sans clothing- but I take the scale into the bathroom to do that. *unless I'm the only one home LOL*

    My scale is under a table in our family room. Close at hand for weighing in each week right before working out, but out of the way for daily room use.

    Mine is slipped under a cabinet in the bathroom. out of sight out of mind! lol, I used to weigh myself every week or twice a week but I got too discouraged with the fluctuations. Now I weigh myself whenever I feel thinner! lol,

    I keep a picture of me at my heaviest on the fridge door. That pretty much does the job. :)

    At my office. I keep it at my work so that I am not led to weigh all the time. It stays here and then I weigh on Wednesday am when I come in. No more until the next Wednesday.

    Mine is currently on top of my dryer in my bathroom. I have an amazingly small apartment, hence the laundry/bathroom. :happy:

    I also weigh every Friday and sans clothes. :wink:

    I keep mine at my parents' house! haha...just kidding. I don't own one. But my parents have a great old medical scale that I go use once a week.

    I don't know!!! My husband stole my scale! He took it and hid because he said I was too obsessed with the numbers!

    And he's right. I would hop on that thing 4-5 times a day and just get depressed. It was counter-productive for me. I keep trying to remember that I'm aiming to get "healthy" and not "skinny."

    He lovingly told me that he would get it out for me every few weeks and then put it back into hiding! :)

    Ditto. And the squeal of pain it makes when I step on the board.
