Keeping motivated - Friday morning weigh ins!

I putting it out there as a suggestion:

I know I am going to be one of those who get on the scales everyday. But I'm thinking it's probably going to be a more realistic weigh in for all of us to check our weight on Friday morning, unclothed (and after a pee! Lol!) so we can keept track of each others' weight loss and keep each other motivated.

I know that some will lose faster, and some slower, but the number one rule is: A LOSS IS A LOSS, not matter how small! And hopefully through this, we can help each other with the head hunger.

What do you all think? We can start this Friday for anyone who is on a pre-op diet, is post-op or anyone who just has started eating healthier leading up to their op.

What do you say? Shall we have a regular Friday morning weigh in of the August All-stars??

Im up for that as well, works perfect for me cause my new life started last friday so it will be the perfect day....:thumbup:

I'm in too. I try to come to these boards often enough, so I will try to log it on Fridays. I'm the type of person who has to weigh every day. I don't let the lack of change or little changes affect me since I've been weighing just about every day for over 6 months and track it. So, I can see on the graph that when I don't have much of a loss, a larger loss follows. It also helps me see how my "little friend" affects me. I'm a data geek, so I guess that's why I do it.

Count me in although I will start next Friday (8/15) if you don’t mind. I am going out to my favorite restaurant tonight for my farewell full meal.J And I don’t want to look at a scale until next week. Thanks for putting this together it will be a great way for us to support each other.

No way Dude! This is the perfect opportunity to pump up those numberssssssssss. I'm not until the 28th, so my first two weeks are going to be cut-n-paste!

ok here we go first weigh in since last fri, 1 week today...i have LOST 2kg:smile:

hows everyone else done?

Speaking of graphs, I have one too :thumbup:. Yes I'm a bit of a data geek as well, and while it's early days, I find it motivational watching it go down, down, down to my goal weight. I WILL get there this time. And stay there!
