No-Weigh November!

This year I am finally participating in "no-weigh November"! I spend a little too much time obsessed with the scale. I want to focus on a healthy lifestyle and not a number. Sometimes I get caught up in everything and end up with an unhealthy relationship with food and exercise. I want lasting results by changing my lifestyle, and I really feel like kicking the scale habit for the month of November will help with that. Anyone else interested in joining me?

    I've already weighed myself today so i failed the challenge already! WTG though, i personally only weigh myself once a week, Saturdays to be exact, i feel like doing it every day is totally unhealthy for your mind.

    I think weighing today would be okay, and then not weighing until Dec 1st :)

    Perfect! I weighed myself today, but that's it for the month now. This is a great idea! Thanks for sharing!

    I wish I could but I have a habit of stepping on it multiple times a week:(

    Will give it a try, like the other I weighted myself today, but it's barely Nov 2nd, so I'll avoid the scale until Dec 1st and see what happens

    I'll do it! I weigh myself several times a day sometimes so this is probably a good idea.... :)

    I stopped weighing in two weeks ago, what do I win? ;)

    I found myself obsessing too much about the scale while my goal is strength training. The two together are counter-productive, so I simply don't weight in. Maybe the end of November I will.

    If I don't weigh in, with Thanksgiving approaching, I could gain. I need to keep weighing in. Almost every day!

    I have failed this already as I weighed in this morning. :p This is a cool idea, not sure if I would be able to not weigh in every morning.
