hi! i have 2 digital scales and they seem to work just fine. the digital scales seem to be as accurate as the analog scale at my doctor's office. you may see a little variation in scales, but I think it's most important to weigh yourself on the same scale consistently, around the same time of day (morning before breakfast…

Jumping rope, push-ups, and jumping jacks... Don't beat yourself up for going over either. A "treat" day is necessary in the big scheme of things! I've gone over a few times, but when I complete my daily entry it's usually not as bad as I thought. Additionally, you can always make-up any overages in eating with exercise…

hi...i use to work the overnight shift. i counted mid-night to mid-night. worked fine for me. i also plan my meals and log food early...if i don't eat it, then i'll delete the entry before completing my diary for that day.

Hi, I count everything...especially until I meet my goal. I'll probably continue to do so after meeting my goal too.

Thanks for the post! Congrats on loosing your 9 pounds so far. I am pretty happy about my 5, so I can imagine how you must feel. Getting the portion size under control has been a bit of a challenge for me too. I measure most of my foods and I'm purchasing a scale real soon! =)
