@@iamblessed1225

common dilema :(

some people have hubby or someone else "hide" the scale ;)

once a week retrieve the scale and weigh yourself :unsure:

don't leave the scale in an "open" area where you would constantly pass it :blink:

temptation is right there for you for to check your weight :wacko:

don't do it!!!! :angry:

good luck :)

Good choice! That reading will drive you crazy. Once a week is plenty while you're losing. I weigh about every day now that I'm in maintenance, but I expect to see the same thing every day. Now it's a good thing.

I weighed every single day when I was in my weight loss phase. I began to see that number as a piece of data that goes into the overall puzzle of my health and well being. 'how you're doing' can be measured by much more than the scale. And for me, I looked more at the trend line. If that trend was still going down, I was doing fine. My loss was slow... I had a lot of days where I saw the same number for weeks.

If it's driving you crazy though, I suggest putting your scale in a spot that's inconvenient to just hop on in the morning. The garage, the back porch. I kept mine in the trunk of my car at one point. I knew I wasn't going out there at 7am to get my scale to get on it.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
