No Scale November!

edited November 8 in Motivation and Support
I am not going to look at the scale for the whole month of November! Why am I doing this? To turn my focus onto FEELING and LOOKING good rather than stressing over the number on the scale. I will stick to my exercise and diet plan and at the end of the month, I'll finally weigh in.

So, who would like to join me?

    I'm on board!! I am obsessed with the scale weigh myself at least once a day so will be good to just simply focus on the way clothes are fitting and how I am feeling too :-) what a good idea!

    I can't but wish you all well.
    Weight and body fat measurements hold me accountable to important goals which need to be tracked. Good luck though!

    Me! Me! ME! I thought about this yesterday, too. I wasn't going to weigh until Dec. 1st but woke up feeling lighter so I did it anyway and it turned out I had lost a pound after losing nothing for 2 weeks. I have been far too obsessed with the scale. I KNOW that I need to focus more on how I feel and look as well and maybe Dec. 1st I'll have a nice surprise.

    Wow! I had to think twice about this but I'm in! This will be as hard as staying the course for me. I'm a daily weigher, some times I weigh myself in the morning and evening. If I stay the course, I have nothing to fear and everything to loose. :D
  • the scale pretty much owned me in the past...now, I only weight on the 1st of every month and take my measurements that same day. I'll totally be on board :)

    I need to focus more on my feeling and how I look. No one can see the number on the scale anyways, beside myself. So I'm not going to weight myself until December 1st.

  • I'm in! I use to weigh myself daily and became obsessed with the number on the scale. So I had to get rid of it. We visit family every weekend and I just use their scale weekly. I will would love to just forget about it!

    I'm in...

    Now if only I didn't wake up each morning and feel my hip bones to judge if I had a good day yesterday or not. :) Don't suppose there can be a rule for not measuring our criticizing our image in the mirror?

    if there's a battery in the scale - the cold may drain it.

    Right, I'm in...terrifying thought as it is to me right now. I've been doing 5:2 for almost 8 weeks and have been using the scale to track the weight fluctuations, but I KNOW it's working (even if some weeks I don't quite reach my lowest low again, the trend overall is downwards)...so perhaps it's just time to trust the process and let go.

    See you all on Dec 1...hope I'm not in for a shock cos I'm only 3kgs from goal and want to be there by Xmas. :)

    I am good with the scale now, but in the past (ie a couple of years ago), when I lost weight, I was so obsessed with the scale that I made my husband hide it from me. He left one day and I found it, so I made him put it in his trunk so that it went with him every day to work!!
  • I'm totally jumping on this bandwagon! Although to be honest I'm more of a track your pant size kind of girl, I still check in more than I should.
