After my workout, in the men's locker room they have a real fancy scale, one with a digital display mounted on the wall with 8" tall digital number readout, a few feet above your head, for ALL to see.

So, I get on the scale, Ok, not bad, not great, at least I'm moving in the right direction. Then, from a man waiting to get on after me, says..."Man, I'll take that!"

WTH? I never would have expected that in my life. I turn and smile at him, and notice he's in pretty good shape! WTH is he talking about?

I've had many people tell me that even though you are loosing weight, your mind is not programmed to think that way. And when people compliment you, they are seeing something your mind cannot comprehend.

Oh, BTW, in the men's locker room we are all walk around with nothnig more than a towel!

well deserved!

Good job!!!! You are such an inspiration!!!!!

Gratz and as my mother would say 'if only we could see ourselves as other people see us ' keep up the good work !

So this is kind of a scale-non-scale-victory! Lol!!!

I'm over a year out and still don't see my weight loss

So this is kind of a scale-non-scale-victory! Lol!!!

CLEVER!!!!!

Yahoo! For your scale-NSV!!!!

That is awesome- it is hard to see ourselves how others see us.

Congratulations!

Way to go! I love your posts. You have such great advice and a good attitude as well!

Keep up your good work

Lol...he was low key checking out your "progress".....

That's fantastic!

But am I the only one thinking, WTF, only a man would get on a scale where other people could read the number! There is no way on earth I would EVER do that!

I still feel the need to lie about my weight. If anyone asks me what I weigh I always knock off a kilo or two! That's why I've never bungee jumped.
