I haven't seen a huge difference yet between weighing and not weighing. I think I've been estimating pretty well, but it's still useful to have, to be sure. Thanks Sue!

Just a wee follow up, nothing changed on the scale yet, but did see my doc and we looked at the results of my blood test and it turns out, wasn't all completely normal as they told me over the phone weeks ago. My thyroid number is high - still within the 'normal' range - but high end of that. Plus he did an iodine test on…

Thanks for sharing your story. It sounds like your body is dealing with a lot of other issues at the moment, so not surprised to hear you can't lose the weight.

All right, I'm in for the food scale!! Will get one. Just changed my food diary settings to public, I had everything on private before.

No, I don't use a food scale. Good point, I forgot to mention calorie intake! After doing all those BMR, TDEE calculations and aiming for a 500 calorie deficit based on my activity level, I'm averaging 1600-1800 calories a day. I've tried loads of online calculators and this is what keeps coming up. Am I that far off??
