I am weighing in on Sunday. I'd like to see another pound but like you, the week went by really fast. I keep trying to remember to stay at an even keel. I don't know about you, but my scale isn't one where I can get 10ths of a pound. Its an old analog one with a dial. I kinda like this because I just round to the nearest pound. So if I am even it may just be that the weight I have lost hasn't shown up on my scale. I really am trying to stay completely focused on the arrows and how my body feels. I can tell I am thinning out. Check the weight but stay the course. Best Jim  

Mine is fairly new .. bought it right before I started here on FatSecret. It actually calculates BMI as well, but I'm not going to start doing that until I've dropped at least 20 pounds. It does measure 'half pounds', but that's about it. I can tell that I'm losing weight, as well. I had to punch another hole in my belt right before I started, and not it looks like I'm due for another hole. My pants are in danger of falling off, even with my belt on now .. :-) I think one of the major milestones for me will be when I've lost enough to get back into my Army uniform. Not that I'm all sentimental about it, but once I know I've gotten down far enough to fit back into it .. I'll really know how far I've come. :-)
