Deb_N's Journal, 29 April 2015

Hi, everyone! Hope you are well. My scale is horrible. I get on it so slowly and carefully to keep it from swinging wildly, and it says 128 lbs and I smile, then it moves to 129 and I frown, and then it settles onto 130 and I laugh out loud. haha

I am below my goal weight, so why am I still weighing? A buddy of mine told me to keep weighing, daily, keep doing the healthy eating and exercising and you will be successful. I'm doing good on the stress level (praying a lot on that) and working on increasing my sleeping. I have so much to be thankful for. Thank you all for being here. Good luck to everyone. You can do this!

Awwwe Deb, You always find the positive in our journey toward our goals. Scales laugh at us and delight in the tricks they play. It is good to see you here.

Update- good news on pet scale I got Buddy to sit for a moment and get a reading- and it was 16.8- so it's pretty much accurate when I been picking him up and weighing him on my scale - I usually take my weight and what his weight is and subtract the difference

Deb in all seriousness you have been an inspiration to me. I look forward to the day that I can say I'm at goal and doing well. You are there and doing what you need to do to stay there. Fantastic, you have shown how it can be done. I hope you feel good about your accomplishments.

Deb keep jumping on that scale!!! If it jumps up and stays up a few pounds it will tell you...WATCH IT!!! You are doing great but you like me, do not want to put those lost pounds back on. It will tell you BAD girl..Get back on your plan and pay attention. I know I do. No way am I going to fight this battle again.

Haha! You made me laugh Deb. That is what my scale does! so I bought another one. Now I think that both scales are conspiring with each other, and doing the same thing! (makes me weigh more!) :)) I think that your weight loss has been an inspiration for us all! Yes Prayers do work! Trust me, I have been doing a lot of that on this darn diet! LOL! ~G.B.~Ann :)

So great that you are staying under goal weight - maintenance a completely different dance!

Lol, I have to do the same thing with my scale. I have to keep myself motivated to keep on pushing. I'm not quite at my goal weight, but I'm almost there. I have to pray a lot too to help me cope with my stress. I hope you keep positive and keep the weight down. Thanks for being such an inspiration for us all.

I know the feeling, after we have worked so hard we don't want to put it back on no matter how small the number.

I'm so proud of you, Deb! Especially for not quitting when you reached (and went below) your goal weight. It takes dedication, which I am still trying to attain.

the SAME thing happens with my scale! It's so frustrating! It's gone from 158 to 159 to 160 in a matter of a minute haha. But I always write in the highest number just to be fair. It's annoying though!

by the way you are awesome. You are an inspiration to me!

Thanks, everyone! I'm telling myself weighing is no big deal. I have been weighing myself every day for the past 5 years. When I go on vacation next month I won't be able to weigh in. It's kind of scary to think I will gain weight, but I'm going to enjoy my break away from the scale. :)

Sheesh, & here I thought only my scale did that wild swingy thing, LOL! Deb weighing in reminds you of your success, & reminds us there's hope for us to reach that point some day too. Don't stress about it, but you know keeping an eye on it fairly regularly is necessary too just to make sure. Keep doing great, gal! Hugs, GLAMMER
