:sad: I have managed to stay away from the scale for 3 days!!!!
This is quite an accomplish for me as I usually torture myself daily!!
I am only going to weigh weekly for now. And when I feel like I am doing good with my weight loss I will try to cut it to monthly or bi-weekly


Anyone else having withdrawls?

    i am trying the same thing. i DO check it at home in the morning before the shower...but what i am trying to avoid is the scale here at work. they are doing a weight loss contest here and we all weighed in this past monday. i weighed again on wednesday and had lost 4 pounds! couldnt believe it and i still dont, actually. i am tempted to go grab the scale again but i WILL NOT until monday. i was going to wait until the next weigh in but i get all excited (and of course, sometimes disappointed) so monday it is! good luck! :flowerforyou:

    I feel ya, Memaw! I've tried to stay away from the scale, too! I've attempted to just peek at it weekly, but I'm down to just 3 times a week versus daily!!!! :happy:

    You know what I hate about work contests? I wear different things that get counted for or against me, so I become aggravated!!!!! :explode: Woo!

    I can't do it...I have to weigh everyday...I think I would go crazy. I have to do it the second I wake up!

    From my experience the desire to check the scale constantly goes away within the first month or two. I was obsessive about it for a while, now I'm fine with not weighing until July. I hop on mornings that I feel like it, but I don't have a set day. It ends up being once a month or so.

    So in terms of scale obsession.. this too shall pass. :bigsmile:
