I have spent the whole day thinking about the scale! This thread has been so supportive! Thank you all for your thoughts, perspective and wisdom. I did this because I was becoming a cripple! I need total knee replacement, degenerated disks in neck and back,sleep apnea , high blood pressure and more. I did not do this to be a model or more beautiful ( I know that I am beautiful already ). I want to be a happy, positive person, not in pain, and light enough that I might hold off.knee replacement for years. The scale it not a tool I am going to use at this time. I am only going to weigh in with my doctor for now. I just want to heal well, get off the liquid diet and start my road to true mobility!
Thank you all my VS friends. It feels good to be able to be related too.
With ,y deepest gratitude
