Product Review regarding bathroom scales
The Taylor Cal-Max digital scale model 7209W looks really sharp and would probably be really nice for some of you. I purchased it because it goes up to 440 lbs. the problem is the base isn't big enough for my big honking feet and I don'f feel secure on it so I can't get stable and it just keeps kicking out an error…

Ok, dumb question maybe, but..... I have a LOT of weight to lose, like in 200 plus pounds. (Although I set up the tracker for 200 at 1-2 pounds a week so hopefully that will make safe and long lasting) Obviously there are going to be lots of different sizes of clothes going on as I work my way down. Here is my question: do…

For my mum
My name is Lisa and I lost my mum last Saturday. It was a huge shock as we had always planned on her coming home from hospital. One of the things she and I had planned was that when she came home we were both going to seriously work on losing weight. I wasn't particularly worried for myself, I'm probably the healthiest fat…
