I've been back, but just lurking
I went on vacation the first week of July. Up to that point I was doing good logging and exercising, although I was at a plateau. When I got back from vacation I was up 2 lbs :cry: and my internet at work was down for 3 days :grumble: so I didn't log anything which just sent me on a downward spiral. I am finally getting…

Happy and Sad
I know this is crazy, but when I got home from work last night I changed my clothes because I had to go out. I put on my favorite pair of capri's that I love and at first I was somewhat sad because I couldn't wear them. They were too big and falling down. It took me a few minutes to finally get happy about it. I worked so…

Which one do you think is more accurate.
Since I started in January I have been using one of those old scales where the numbers spin until they land on your weight. Well I recently got a digital scale and it has me 6 pounds lighter. :happy: So I know which scale I like better, but do you know which type is more accurate?
