Hi all:

Well, this is my first day without the scale and I'm telling you, I think I am going through withdrawls. !! I need my scale but it was a love/hate relationship. So, I won't weigh again til Sunday Roll Call. Sigh !! (My choice of course).

Take care all,
Evie

Evie, I don't know how you do it. Breaking my addiction to food was easier than trying to end my addiction to the scale. I told my husband to hide my scale the other day, but I chickened out before he had a chance to do it! Any tips?

Thanks!

Hi Auntie:

Thanks so much for replying to my becasue I thought I was the only one addicted to the scale. I have gone to or toward that sandbox at least 10 times today to weigh.

So about an hour ago, (whichI admit, this time of day is my "restless" time), I said self, go ahead and weigh, what is the beg deal???? So my mission was to find the scale that my husband hid. AND, I found it. But it is a digital and he TOOK the BATTERY out. ..... Do you think I can find a 9 Volt battery in this house???? NO!! So, I considered going to the neighbors and ask if they have one I could use for a sec ...or go to the store and buy some but I would like to think I don't need to do that!! Silly I know, but I know I have lost at least 5 lbs since I weighed Sunday

Well again, thanks for understanding and I hope I can make it thru this 1st day without the scale cuz this is sort of Crazy!!! Not as important as staying on the diet and I'm making it into something big.

Thanks again,
Evie
