Another entry….
Another month into it….got on the scale this am….365…less of a change in the numbers, but more in inches. I have found myself wearing clothes(comfortably) that I havent worn in years(like two inches in the waist, about two in the chest, estimated…). With that, though, I have decided to change my goal - instead of wanting to lose 70 lbs, I am wanting to lose 125 lbs(this will bring me down to 265(a weight that I have not seen since High school…) - 25 down, another 100 to go!! I still have the scale issue….looking at it and wanting it to drop so severely, but knowing that it won’t(meanwhile, my fiancee has lost about 30 lbs in three weeks - post gastric bypass surgery…does that help my case? not quite, but it does somewhat add to my frustration, even adding some bitterness to the situation…). A really good friend of mine(as well as my BB.com "angel", Ben1993), to stop looking at the scale and let your clothes be your guide… I will say this, it aint easy, but I remain determined…. one other thing…thanks, everyone for the support…

I’m so addicted to the scale so I FEEL your pain. There is no way I can put my clothes on each day without getting on the scale. I know my weight will be dropping quite a bit due to the sole intake of shakes all day…but if it doesn’t drop I understand that THAT is the time to pull out the ole measuring tape because your inches are probably dropping when the scale stops moving.
Anyway…wish you the best!

Thank you! Good to know that I’m not the only one…
