    Re: I have a confession to make. I am going to give up......

    I have been tempted countless times, but have only weighed once, and that was in the gym on Sunday morning. I have failed, but am getting back on the wagon.

      I think you're doing great if you only weighed once in a few days.

      Two scales? Are they side by side keeping eachother company, Rich? ...LOL

          I have two scales too, one is a digital, good for measuring luggage and the cat when I go flying. The analogue scale is 5 pounds less than the digital, and fluctuates each time I step on it. But my husband (who has never dieted a day in his life) loves it, so we keep it too.

                Darn. I'm up 2lbs since last week. Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Confession: I did slightly weigh myself at the gym but that is all for the week, which is a major improvement

                    Richt and Baarb, you guys are doing great. I wish I could get into weighing once a week too. This morning I was up 1lb since yesterday and I have been on induction again - no cheats! Silly scales... But I have managed to get me down to once a day. I'll work on once a week now.

                          It has been so hard! But it is possible.

                              Well I failed miserably on this not weighing until Friday thing.

                              I'm not sure if I should start weighing more regularly, as I'm getting closer to goal, or if I should go back to once-a-week. I don't necessarily change anything about what I'm doing if the number is wonky. I just look at the number.

                                Julie,

                                I'm about 10-12 lbs from goal and I would say if you can stick to once a week because if it starts to slow down you might get scale obsessed. I was fine weighing all the time until I began to fluctuate, then stall and it started to get to me.

                                Others may disagree but even if you are eating too many carbs and gain, a week is a small enough unit to repair the damage
