Here Janae (and anyone else who wants it)

Lets forget the word "weak" and concentrage on scale whore and scale pimpdaddy.

I want to add I dont normally put a background on my images but have to to make them jpegs which make them smaller.

[ChiNut]

That is so cute and creative Jenn.

Love it, Jenn!

Why is it "weak" when you weigh every day?

I'm with you on this one, manly. But I do see the point for those who have issues with the scale......for instance, my scale does not call out to me, or lure me. I think I have a well behaved scale.

[Sarya]

My scale is just sort of evil.

[ascicles]

My scale is great. It's digital and it talks to me.

[Janae]

I'm afraid if my scale talked to me...I might slap it....or hug it...depending on what it had to say on any given day!!!

I know Sharon used "weak" in a playful manner.....besides, I think any of us who have been compliant on MF are not weak!

The appeal for me in not weighing is that, although I do not base my compliance on it, unfortunately, it will affect my mood if I do not lose. If I were close to goal, I could not do it, either.

Jenn....thanks a bunch for the graphic...that looks great!!! I love it! And you are a dear for taking the time to do it!

Sharon...as I understand it....here is the plan;

1. Weigh on August 1 for our official starting weight.
2. Do not weigh until September 1.
3. If we slip and weigh early, come here and post it for accountability.
4. Weigh on September 1 and report our great losses!!!

Is that about it???? Do I need to sign anything with my blood or pledge my firstborn? ( I don't have one, but I have a step-first born ) OK...verbal (written) assent is sufficient.

But...if, during the month, I hear my scale cry out to me....I don't know if I will be able to ignore it!!! Depends of it's tone of voice, I guess!

Tuesday is August 1!!!!!!!

If I were well into my MF program I'd probably join you, but since I'm JUST starting (as in haven't even gotten my stuff yet) I don't think I could go my whole first month without seeing how much I lose each week - I'll have to fight the urge to weigh daily as it is! LOL

Janae, Your scale is not an infant. It won't hurt the scale to ignore it's cries.

[GucciGoo]

I will do this with you guys.

But I am starting today because I am mad at Queen Bitch, my scale. So I weighed in at 156.5 today and will not even dream of peeking at my weight until until September 1st when you guys do.

[Janae]

Yay, Beach Baby! Another Player!

It's going to be fun!!!

the scale isn't an infant?



then i gotta find out why i start lactating when it cries out to me.

[Janae]

Jo...I will try to remember that!!! But, I figured if Manly's scale talks to him, mine may cry! But, come to think of it...I used to leave it alone for months at a time...and it did just fine!!! So...it is...tough love for the scale!!!

Sharon, sorry I made a deal out the the "weak"ness. I knew you were kidding and so was I. I don't take things personally so don't worry about it. I know I can't do it but part of me wants to. I might wait till vacation and try to continue as long as I can when I get back.
You ladies and gentlemen who can do this...You are all strong in my book. I wish you all luck with this and I expect to see good results when its over

Hubs read that and kinda laughed and then said...that's gross...haha

Yes Janae, you've got it down! Those are great directions you gave.

Elke, glad you know I was teasing. I figured you were just messing with me but I wanted to make sure you know I was being goofy.

Let the games begin...
