1 Month No Weigh Challenge!!!

Re: 1 Month No Weigh Challenge!!!

Hi Cher! Glad you and Joy joined us! I'm just tired, no real reason for it. I've been having heavy dreams that wake me up every few hours - so maybe not enough REM sleep? I also think I need to make a phone call today, one that should put my mind at ease. I know - obtuse, but it deals with my family . . . so, drama!!!!

When I did the no-scale thing in June, it was so exciting to see a big loss, instead of the little dribs and drabs up and down every day. I think that's why I'm gung-ho to do this again. It's also nice to break the scale ball-and-chain routine!

XO

Silly, no I haven't gotten an MP3 player yet. Still trying to decide about it. The tape measure challenge ends August 1.

Cher, yep I'm here with you guys, glad you are too.

Stacy, I can definitely see where a big loss is a bigger boost to the ego, I think that's just what we all need.

Re: 1 Month No Weigh Challenge!!!

Stacy - Sorry to hear about the family issues and the heavy dreams that are waking you up every few hours. i hope that your mind is put at ease when you make the phone call today!

I am hoping that I wait this out, I will also see a big loss in August! I know that will be the benefit of waiting despite my fear's of not getting on the scale today!

Re: 1 Month No Weigh Challenge!!!

My girlfriend is picking up my scale today - and keeping it until the 9th! I have to re-start. Confession here. I didn't make it ONE DAY!!! I couldn't even enjoy my 1 pound weight loss I felt so guilty when I went to lunch!

This is hard. Sorry - I'll try to do better. I'm not even trusting DBF with the scale. I know I'll talk him into giving it back to me.

So that's a good decision for your friend to come get it! And she's a good friend for not calling you crazy! Gads Cher.....this is really, really hard . But honestly, it's stupid right? This is a perfect challenge for us!

Re: 1 Month No Weigh Challenge!!!

And good job Cher getting that evil thing out of the house if it's bugging you THAT bad.
I did that once. Gave mine to my DD to take back to college with her. Next day I was back at Wal-mart buying another one!

Re: 1 Month No Weigh Challenge!!!

She's a size zero and she weighed 170 something like 17 years ago. She weighs 113 pounds now and has never gone up more than 5 pounds since she dropped her weight. She thought that giving up the scale for once a month was a really good idea. She does that sometimes.

By the way... she eat 2300 calories a day - she loves food. I try to remember that every time I want to starve myself and cut my calories!

Re: 1 Month No Weigh Challenge!!!

Barbde,

That scale was too expensive... I won't buy another one!

Re: 1 Month No Weigh Challenge!!!

Sweet~Do you mean she was 107 and a size 0? If she was 170 and a size 0 I'd like to know where she buys her clothes!

Joy~Hang in there!


I'm thinking of having a yard sale, actually I'm planning on it mentally I just haven't physically done anything just yet. There's so much to get rid of around the house that I'm ready to free our lives from.

I wonder if anyone would want to buy a used scale at the yard sale?

Here's my thinking (humor me, I'm tired)...sell the $5 scale I bought from Walmart at the yard sale for a few bucks, maybe a buck depending on the buyer, and then once a month buy a $5 scale and then donate it to the thrift store the same day after I weigh in. okay, it was just a wild thought. lol.
