weekly scale challenge

Happy Monday to all of you...

I want to start a scale challenge...this is for all of you (including myself ) that get on that scale more then once a week...

Today I have made the challenge to myself to only get on it every Monday morning..

As of this morning my weight is 229

This is a great way to not obsess with what the scale reads through out the week if I have some challengers to do it with me

Next weigh in Monday 7/27

Any takers??

I am staying away from the scale right now because I am still P.O'd and am having visions of a Tanita in flight.
I confused Tanita and Makita the first time I read this, and pictured Darcy throwing a chainsaw! Then I remembered my doc's Tanita scale and laughed. D, tell your husband to duck.

That is a hard challenge! I am on the scale, every other minute! I know we are not suppose to, but it's hard not to!

Awesome Katie!!!

Zoe...LOLOLOLOL...

Thanks guys your the best....the support here makes me work harder and make better choices, so thanks guys, you help more than you know!!!

Hey, I missed my weigh in this past Monday cuz I was MX getting my first fill. I weighed myself this am and am now 215 YEAHHHHHHHHHHH. I finally past my plateau

I am game as well I am at 207 right now.:nervous

HI

My hard work did it but the fill is now gonna get me past the next hump. I just got back from my fill in MX. Doc gave me 2cc. Boy am I tight. I was on liquids for three days! just started eating again but very small quantities. I've been kinda doing no effort to lose weight and really want to begin making healthy choices and possible some exercise. Thought thought of that is scary. I feel like I can't do much, I am sooooooo out of shape.

Hi Amoro -- I know what you mean about feeling out of shape. A lot of us felt (or feel) the same way. Start slow, with something low-maintenance, low-tech, and low-budget, like walking or riding a bike (if you have one). You can go as slowly as you need to. As your body gets stronger, you'll be able to move faster and for longer periods before you know it, even after just one week. Don't push yourself too much when you're just starting an exercise program or you could injure yourself. Meanwhile, congrats on the new fill!

I just weighed in this morning at 321.5 for the second week.

Down 4 pounds for the week!

Wade

Well... I am a happy camper... I HAD gained a pound up to 199... am down to 195 this morning so 4 lbs down this week! YAY!!!! I just want to get a safe distance from the 2's!
