Puttn' away the Scale

I just have say I am putting away my scale! Nasty thing that it is......  Just Sayn'
I've been stuck between 217-220 for over a month.    

Gotta get back to the basics and concentrate on me. When my clothes start to feel loose only than I will pull the dumb thing back out. I think I'll try some stall busting receipes from the receipe forum.

AMEN!!! 

The scale CAN be our friend, but it can also be a horrific foe - messing with our heads, filling us up with stress and anxiety, when we SHOULD be feeling peace in knowing we are working our tools!  It WILL move when our bodies are ready to accept that we will NOT abuse it with starvation OR excessive CRAP!

I try to only get on mine once or maybe twice per month.  GOOD FOR YOU, LORRI!!

Darla said it perfectly!
 
 Lorri - I agree being stuck can be so frustrating. I really do notice changes in myself clothing wise, or how I feel even when that scale isn't moving though. Keep  your chin up, you have done a great job with your tool.
 Hope to see you at coffee again soon!

I know exactly what you mean! I am addicted with the scale and horribly stuck between 210-213... ERGHH!!!

I had my husband hide my scale the first of March because my Nut told me to. I still have yet to pull it out. I went for my 3mo post op appointment on 3/30 and I had lost 20 pountd in March alone! I was soooo worried about my weight loss because some days I would gain a pound and some days I would lose a pound and it would freak me out but in the overall picture I was losing a lot of weight I just couldn't see the whole picture because I was taking it day by day. I have been sooo much happier with out the scale!!
