When I first started I tossed out the scale but for this past month I have been weighing daily. I liked seeing the fluctuations, is what I kept telling myself, but I was lying to myself. It started to effect me these last few days. So I just read in a post were someone is going to do the no scale for a month thing and thought I would join in. Making this the go to post for us to support each other.
I need to focus on what is important and not let my OCD take a hold of me. This time though I need my husband to hide it in a better place. LOL.
So my here I go, as of July 2nd, I know what I weigh, and my measurements. I will focus on hitting my macros and my TDEE -15%. Make this my focus on HEALTH month!!
Who is in this with me?

So wish I could resist it. Maybe next month.0 -
I'll join you!
I'm totally discouraged by my constant weighing. I'm down a pant size and a top size, but the scale doesn't show it. I'm discouraged when I should be happy. When I see the scale not budging and it makes me go eat.

I'm in also. I was on a diet that consisted of weighing daily so you knew if a particular food made you gain or not. It drove me crazy but I find myself still weighing each morning. So as of today, no more weighing for a month.0

I'm in too! I just stuffed mine in the closet!0

I'm ....in. I hope. I have a very strong "Weigh every time you go into or near the bathroom" habit that I really need to break. I just hope I have the willpower.
I've been really frustrated losing and gaining the same 6 pounds over and over for two months now. I've come very close several times to giving up and dropping back down to 1200 calories again, even though that's where I plateaud in the first place :huh: ! I have over the same two months lost inches off of everywhere and dropped my body fat % by 4 %, so I know that it IS working, but the lack of scale movement is irrationally frustrating and demoralizing.0 -
Just remember - scale weight means nothing! It's all about the inches and how you look in the mirror.

the only way i was able to manage this last month was to actually REMOVE the scale from my home! i gave it to my mom so it wasnt even an option. the one time i did weigh myself was at a friends house DURING A DINNER PARTY! i have no willpower, i saw that sucker and jumped right on!! now that mr. scale is back, i know he can't go back to his spot in the bathroom or else ill be too tempted. i have heard someone suggest putting it in the trunk of your car...although i must say that the thought of hurried women in PJ's with bedhead standing on scales in their driveways at 6 am has me ROTFL0 -

Okay, I weighed myself yesterday because I had returned from vacation and was curious. I would say the scale doesn't have a hold on me, but I guess we'll find out. No more weighing until August 1st! 0
