  • OK - just texted my hubby to take & hide my scale when he gets home. This will be so hard but when I changed my diet a week ago I wasn't going to weigh but I have done it every day twice a day all week. The obsession must end. I am doing this for health not numbers. I need to make the jump. Let's do it! Last weigh in:…
