    Ah, the scale. I have a "leaner" which can fluxuate 5 lbs. or more. It's wierd, I sometimes think about getting one of those good digital ones but I kinda like not REALLY knowing (fools me into thinking I am not actually a slave to the scale) and I am afraid of what a correct scale might say my weight is. Foolish mind games, I know, but they work for me. (does that mean I am a fool!?!?!?!) I'm with you on this Candy....I saw a great deal on a scale the other day at Liquidation World. It was very high tech, glass with a bunch of functions. It was a Thinner brand scale. I have had one of those brand for years, digital but just basic weight in 1/2 lb increments. I was so tempted to buy this scale but didn't because I was afraid it might say I weigh more than my old scale because it would be more accurate. I'm thinking of going back for it, if its still there, it was the only one. I mean really, common sense dictates even if the scale says I weigh more than I do now, its all relative, it means I started off heavier and I have lost the same amount of weight....right? Wow, the numbers game, sure plays a game with our minds!

    Anyhow, have a fantastic day all you STACers!
    Have a great day yourself!

      Hey girl....I can't tell you if its "safe" or not, but I chew it. Look for the ones that have the least carbs. I chew "Stride" for the most part which is 1 carb per piece. We can't buy it here in Canada but I bought several packs home with me from Florida.

      Sorry I can't give you a more technical answer here. It doesn't seem to have any effect on me to chew it though. I also have the odd sugar free mint or candy which also doesn't affect me one way or the other. Hope this helps.

      Correct me anyone if I'm wrong here. This is totally personal for me, not saying its okay or right for everyone.

        Blaze and Strudel,

        I chew sugar free gum too and from what I have been told and read, it is ok to chew it as long as you count the carbs in it.
