Forget pounds, we should be weighed in COLORS

Let's just give every 5 pound range one color.

Say 280 to 285 lbs = Midnight Blue.


I weigh Midnight Blue.


;)

Considering individual weigh fluctuates from one day to the next sometimes simply by how much water that chinese meal you had last night is making you hold in, the pound-based scale is just needlessly worrying people.


Down with pounds, up with colors!

  • Haha. :laugh: I weigh red (170-175). And although it was fun for a while coming down off of yellow and orange when I first got to red... I'm SOOOOOOO ready to weigh periwinkle!!! :bigsmile:

    but ... but... I thought it was lemon-lime, and here you say it's red. I'm all confused about my color goals now!

    Oh don't worry... it's red for women and lemon lime for men. It's a complex system...

    ok so let me get this scale down:
    Midnight Blue: 280-285
    unknown
    Fuschia is 195-200
    unknown
    Yellow is 180-185
    Orange is 175-180
    Red is 170-175
    unknown
    Forest Green is 130-135
    Clover is 125-130

    so at the moment I am orange, I was perilously close to yellow for a time but never quite stepped over that line... I hope to be red by the end of next week...

    My ultimate goal is Forest Green by this time next year but I should only be there momentarily because this time next year I also hope to get preggers :bigsmile:

    Starting to think I should actually replace the numbers in my scale with a color wheel!

    flavescent which is yellowish or turning yellow

    zinnober which is chrome green
    stramineous which is strawy; light; worthless; straw-coloured
