The scale can become your worse enemy! Or best friend. Depending on how you ise it.0

i sneak up on my scale like a thief in the night,and step on it like Im trying not to break the eggs on it somehow thinking i may weigh less if it doesn't notice me right way..lol0
-
My scale is heavy. And topped with glass. Not sure I wanna leave that lying in the road.0
-
Yes I tend to think mine lies to me...the clothes fit differently so that is bonus even though the scales does not seem to want to move.......maybe it is on it's way out...lol0

I join you in the 'TOSS THE SCALE' party. I just weighed myself a few days ago and was glad...lost 32 lbs I have not been on a scale since i started using MFP back in Dec. 11....I am not a fan of always being on the scale...it can break your motivation if you ask me...so yes let's do it toss that puppy right out the window...or front door....which ever you choose.0

My scale provides useful information that I try to approach as objectively as possible. It may not be true for you, but some people let their weight creep up because they don't have the regular feedback of a scale. Then they're surprised that they've gained a lot of weight. I don't like surprises.0

True! Thats why I said it can be your worse enemy or best friend. In this case best friend. Unless your goal is to increase lean muscle mass, which in turn is healthier than being skinny fat. Trust me, i go through this emotional roller coaster with scale ALL the time.0 -

:drinker: Yeppers I agree 100%.0

sometimes the weight gain is lean muscle mass. If we are sedentary and start exercising even if you don't lift weights you gain some weight because your muscles tone up0

Good job on your weightloss thus far!0 -

YES! TOSS IT!! LOL!0 -
I wish I could join the no-scale movement but the last time I did, I gained 35 pounds! I absolutely love the philosophy behind it, but I know I too easily delude myself, lol. Plus, the way I carry extra weight, I have to gain a lot before it's really that noticeable. No scale is dangerous for me!0

I acknowledge that for some people the scale info is more of a burden than a boon. If I ate more or less the same number of calories every day, exercised religiously (I'm recovering from an injury at the moment), and never deviated from my regime I might be willing to try consulting the scale less.
I have a scale that provides a body fat percentage estimate as well as the weight. I watch that number just as closely.
Whatever works.0
