    and of course, i am in. i really don't have a problem with staying off the scale. my problem these days is remembering to weigh every so often. i'm finding out, one can be as hard as the other to correct.

      I'm in. I rarely weigh these days anyway. I prefer going by inches and by the way my clothes fit, and keeping the Blood-Sugar Symptoms Test handy.

                Hey there,
                I may as well join, too. My damn scale doesn't like me lately anyway!

                Past three weekly weigh-ins...-2#, -1#, -0# I am too big to have such tiny losses so early on!!! And I am not cheating either!

                        Hey, this is just what I need. I have just finished 14 day induction and weight loss has stalled at 195lbs for the past 3 days. I have to stop weighing daily if not two times a day. I've decided to go up to rung one OWL by adding 5 grams of carbs. I just want a little spinach in my egg, a few celery sticks and cucumbers to mix it up a bit. I am sure that the weight will come off in the 1-2.5 pound a week .
                        So I am going to hide the scale .

                              Can't wait until next week. I am having the kids hide the scale. I hope that you all don't consider this cheating.
