I weigh myself every day in the morning (naked upon waking and before eating, please) and usually again before bed if I'm being honest. I think it helps keep me accountable and, for the most part, is very motivating. Motivating because I've seen consistent losses for like 5 months (minus a few mid-week hiccups and one small weekly gain). The thing is, it won't always be like this and I know it. I've decided to start preparing for the scale to slow by challenging myself not to weigh everyday. Not to let the number on the scale dictate my mood (while it's been motivating and encouraging, when it's up or 'bad' it does impact my mood).
So, I'm just being real and admitting that maybe I have a scale addiction issue. I moved it out of the bathroom last night and into my husband's closet. Out of sight, out of mind. Right? Oh God I hope. I managed to not weigh myself this morning but it was HARD.
I am praying that my willpower this week is rewarded when I do weigh on Monday (my official day).
By the way, if anyone is in the market for a new scale, I have this one from Amazon and I love it (and check out how many reviews it has! That's what sold me. Plus, made in the USA).** They also make a non-wide, non-high weight level version for the non fatties.
** Just my opinion, I'm not getting any free scales out of this mention. I mean for my whole, what, 10 page views you think I might, but alas :P
