    I agree. I wish I could stop weighing myself. The scale hasn't moved in a week despite my efforts, but plenty of people have commented on how great I look, and these slacks I couldn't wear two months ago just slipped on last week. It was a fantastic feeling. My clothes just fit better and I feel great.

    I am a big scale freak but it can be very deceptive. I have always heard to try on your clothes and see how they fit, that is how to judge how well you are doing. We should have a "throw your scale out day" lol lol:bigsmile:

    I agree! My scale hasn't budged in quite some time, but I can jog triple what I was able to do when I started here. Weight loss is great, but health is my main goal:wink:
