    Lacy, I'm super proud of you too for sticking with this for three months and it's clear that you are here for the long run! That's fantastic and your weight loss results definitely show it.

    We have a joke in Germany which says that every time two Germans that have one thing in common meet, they create a new club (in our university alone we have about 100 clubs for 1500 students). I suppose you are not German, but we could still make a club... Hard to come up with a name for it though.

      I want to echo the post a few above that said I never really worried about weighing in until this challenge. It's killing me! But I will persist. (Two days and counting)

      Start date: 03/14/09
      Goal #1 - 260 - Met 04/12/09! Goal #4 - 230 - Met 08/03/09!
      Goal #2 - 250 - Met 05/22/09! Goal #5 - 220 - Met 01/29/10 FINALLY!
      Goal #3 - 240 - Met 06/20/09! Goal #6 - 210

        Day 2 and I haven't weighed!

        Staying with the program - drinking lots of water and watching those carbs - not watching the scales, though! I think I'll go outside and walk today. No scales to tempt me there!

            I am still weigh free. I was so tempted today but threw a towel over the scale instead.
            hmmm that has me thinking...can we step on the scale if a towel is covering it? LOL just teasing of course. ugh

            I hope I can make it to Saturday.

                I wonder how long we could go without stepping on a scale?
                Maybe if I can do this, I'll make a personal challenge to go even longer.

                  funny you should ask there is an ongoing scale free challenge in the Ongoing Scale Free Challenge forum. Sherri would love to have you join up that thread! everybody just kinda states their own goals whether that be a week, 2 weeks, monthly or longer. when you're finished with this challenge, you can buzz over there and keep going

                    ****NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE****

                    did that get your attention?

                    i don't think i addressed this in the initial post of the thread but i will now. in every one of the weigh? no way! challenges, i have allowed for dr. appointments either by set appointments or emergency room care. dr's do not like to let the weigh in pass them by. as a matter of fact, on one of my radiation treatment days, i was told that they HAD to weigh me as per the state of ohio laws. i weighed, closed my eyes and had no idea what the total was that day.

                    so............. if you have a dr's appointment during this challenge, it will not count against you. now listen .... don't be calling your dr. for an emergency hangnail appointment just so you can get weighed! LOL

                      Hmm. I think I have a horrible stomach ache. Where did I put that emergency number? lol.

                      1:27am here. No weighing on Day 2.

                              Yes, as Jimmie mentioned, the Ongoing Scale Free is a great way to continue your challenge of staying off the scale. If it only be a "whole" day, to stay off of the scale. All personal challenges are accepted.
                              Would love to have you join us there as well as anyone here.
                              Hope to see you there.

                                Scale? What scale? My son hid it in his room yesterday and took the battery out and hid that too! He told me to close my eyes as he was going to hide it. I told him to just hide it somewhere in his room, that I'd never risk my life trying to enter that abyss to look for a scale!!! Messy teenagers!!!
