So you know how you're supposed to zero the scale or whatever before you first use it? Well, I got a new scale today and totally forgot all about zeroing it.. and guess what ? I freaked out when i realised I had gained 40lbs! :noway: !!! Good thing my cousin was around to help. lol

    My DH showed me that I was cheating myself out of an ounce of food when I put my chicken in the bowl, then the bowl on the scale:noway: :grumble: :grumble:

    :ohwell: :flowerforyou:
  • I did something like that before. I lived in an old house, so I just thought that the floor wasn't level. I kept getting a different number no matter where I put the scale. Then I finally realized what I was doing wrong.

    I can stand on my scale and get off it again 3 or 4 times and can gain up to 3lbs in a matter of seconds..Now grant you in the past I could have gulped down a couple of chocolate doughnuts in a matter of seconds and even that wouldnt be 3 lbs..I am actually getting quite tired of getting on the scale and getting excited that Im down a pound and then gain again...I am actually considering not getting on the scale for a month if I can do it...That may be my new goal....that IS my new goal...
