Keep your head up and continue to do what you do. You will be able to weigh eventually, and when you do just think of all the weight you will be down then. 

hey odyssey are you unable to weight because you can't find a scale to hit your weight? I was at that place not long ago and after some research found one. Let me know if you need the info. It was really reasonable!  

Just keep on doing what you are doing and see how your clothes fit. You'll be able to tell your success by that!! Keep that chin up, GF. You can do this!!  

I agree, with ctlss. Pay attention to how your clothes fit. Be patient. If you are eating healthier and becoming more active, it is going to work. Congrats on your efforts! 

One day at a time. One step at a time. 

Right Kingcole. The one at Primary Care has a lower limit on it. There is one somewhere in the hospital but my mother doesn't know where they have moved it since they built the new half of the hospital and my back is too bad for me to walk all over it looking. I cannot afford to buy one myself. I will probably just have to wait until my Pain Management appointment (it's in another town). It's in about a month and their scale weighs up to 500. I only have one pair of pants and one shirt that fit me enough to wear outside the house and everything else I wore was so incredibly tight that it's hard to gauge how they fit. I do have a bit more stamina and energy most of the time now, though, and I can see that my belly is some smaller and shaped differently now but I think it is going to be a long time before there is any real difference. Thank y'all for commenting. I really appreciate it :) 

I want to pay it forward. I want to do something for you. I'll tell you what odyssey. There was awhile where I couldnt weigh in either soo I know how you feel so here it is, when I get to 425, my 550 limit scale is yours if you want. I planned on getting a new scale anyways I would love to be able to help. Let me know.
