Weighing yourself
I am just curious how often people weigh themselves.. I have been so obsessed with weighing myself the past couple of months... I would do it about the same time every morning naked... eventually I would notice my weight fluctuating 2-4 pounds either way... and get so frustrated when it would go positive so I decided to…
