Topic: Prayers Needed Please
Hi my friends. I need prayers from you please. My grandmother has been ill for a long time with osteporosis and diabetes. She has been on dialysis for about 5 years. They put her in the hospital on Tuesday as her heart is to weak and the dialysis isn't working any more.
I got a phone call from my sister just a minute ago and she is is a coma. The doctors do not expect her to make it through the weekend. My mother is having a very hard time dealing with it.
Please keep my family in your prayers, we need it badly right now.
Hugs,
Dana

Hi Steph, I'm with Krystal on this one, I AM TOTALLY OBSESSED WITH THE SCALE, and I weigh at least 3 times a day. I have had some times that I get upset but I realize the closer we get to our goal the SLOWER the weight comes off. My husband tried to hide it from me and I threatened to go buy another one so he left it .
We will see some flucuation but remember it has a lot to do with salt and water weight we retain for the most part. As long as we eat healthy meals and remember the pouch rules, we will be successful. Don't fret, you are doing awesome and you will make your goal.

I am obsessed. I weigh 5 times a day. I seriously have a problem with it. Its starting to scare me a little. I just cant stay away from it.
I'm actually starting to get a little scared of losing too much weight though. I never thought Id have that problem. My doc only wanted me to lose 10 more pounds 15 max 5 pounds ago, and I'm still losing roughly 10 pounds a month. In 6 more pounds I'll have a normal bmi, but I'm already wearing 6s pants and medium shirts. I'm looking good now, but if I lose much more I'm going to look too thin.
I know I need to just toss the scale, but I cant. I guess I traded my obsession with food for being a scale junkie. I look at it this way - It could be worse I could be addicted to other things. At least the scale wont harm my body.
By the way - You are doing fantasic! You look so wonderful! We'll all be at goal before we know it. What an amazing ride this has been.

I weigh every morning. Of course it is right before I step into the shower and before breakfast. I make sure the scale is in the same spot on the tile floor because it weighs a little different if it isn't. I guess the floor is uneven or I'm just an obsesive compulsive freak! Yeah maybe that's it! LOL It does get me down sometimes but I've gotten used to the fact that I usually lose a few pounds then fluctuate with it for a few days or even weeks before it becomes permanent so I don't get to upset about the ups I just count it as closer to it being permanently gone.

Topic: RE: how often do you weigh yourself?
I try to do it once a week, BUT like you I have an obsession with the scale, I am scare of gainning weight so I feel like I have to do it everyday, even though I know is not good because it gets me very frustated when I see that I gain and then loose and then gain again.
I think I'll try your idea of putting the scale away I'll ask my husband to hide the scale and bring it out only on Mondays.

Topic: Tummy Tuck Time!!!!
Yeah!! I just came back from my almost seven month follow-up appointment. I now have officially lost 83 pounds!
But the best part of the appointment was that my doc took the pictures for insurance purposes........A Tummy Tuck request!
I am so excited and ready for the next phase of this weight loss process. If you would have told me seven months ago that this is where I would be now, I would have never believed you.
I hope all my fellow Februarians are doing as well and are as excited about their loss as I am!
Thanks for listening!

Topic: how often do you weigh yourself?
i was just curious how often you all weigh yourselves....i seem to have an obsession about weighing myself. my friend jen weighs in once a week and i can't seem to stay off the scale. 
i think it makes me frustrated more when i weigh everyday..i even put the scale away so i wouldn't see it and feel the need to get on it. well that didn't work because i just got the scale out everyday instead. i don't know why i'm so obsessed with the freaking scale. SO how often does everyone else weigh in???
