Gone For Good Club- August 2006

[LindaV 0]

I have a WW scale that I love. It consistently weights me about 1 pound more than my doctor's scale but it is consistent. There are still days thought when I am ready to break it in half I get so mad at it. Hmmmm--it seems my anger may be misplaced!

I've been surprisingly happy with that scale. I think my favorite thing is it's consistancy.

The old scale we had you could stand on it five times and get five severely different readings.

This one is rarely variable between weigh ins (no matter how light I try and stand!).

P'Dawg.

Yeah, I try to sneak up on the scale as lightly as I can! I do make sure my toes are in the same place every time just to be sure. I used to know just where to stand on my old scale to insure the lightest weigh-in.

Me too! Hanging off the front as far as possible! LOL :pound:

Fortunately being somewhat taller, I can hang onto the closet door frame at the top.

It's amazing how much weight that can shave off

On a side note, my diet modification is driving me close to insane.

Because I wasn't getting enough Protein I decided to punish myself still further.

Here's my current Menu:

Breakfast:

Can of tuna.< /p>

lunch

Can of tuna.

dinner

Healthy choice meal.

Supper

Periodically been having a banana and Milk. Smart sugar right before bed (skipping this tonight).

I'm going to die of mercury poisoning but not obesity damnit!

Yes, I am taking Vitamins too.

This should mean I'll have eaten 172 pounds of tuna by the end of the year. Fabulous.

I tried that once and almost went face first into the tub when the scale tipped forward! When I finally got back on I had gained 2 pounds from the day before. I tried to put it off to scale error due to scale trauma but I think it might have been the 3000 calories I had consumed the day before (I really needed a fill and grazed all night at a party!)

I even resorted to holding the "girls" up one morning but, of course that didn't work! DUH! I have wondered if I could get an accurate tummy apron weight if I scoot the scale up to my counter and set my excess tummy on top. Or perhaps have my husband support my "girls" while I am on the scale. I'm sure he wouldn't mind.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! That's not imagery I want everyone imagining! It was bad enough that I was in front of a mirror.

Snickering like a schoolboy.

Why do you think I chose a cow for my avatar. It's "udderly" appropriate - believe me!

Darn, I keep having to edit out my signature because I am using the "post quick reply option!"

I forgot again!

Udderly understandable.

At least I don't have to worry about them shattering like the real things. Although if I get them going in the wrong direction, I suppose I could give myself a black eye or two. Ok, enough... really goodnight this time!

*laughs* Now that is my image of pom poms.

Nite Linda. Thank you for helping me so much today. You are an awesome friend.
