My Last Cold Stone Adventure in Sugar Hell
About Me
- Joy's Journey in Weightloss
- My name is Joy and I am a 42 year old with a child who is a dream come true (more on that story later) and a career that is my calling in life. I have incredible friends and am in good place in my life...except for one thing-my weight. I have been on every diet from Scarsdale, meal replacing (and gall bladder replacing) shakes, Jenny Craig and everything else under the sun. I think ultimately, Weight Watchers will be my best bet to tackle this challenge, but I am clearly not ready-yet because I still think I can eat sugar when ever I want. Sugar took so much from my life, including my fertility with Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome. I have to get out of denial and make a change for good!

I so hate a scale. The only scales I like are the ones at the doctor's office. They are always on target and I don't have to second guess the electric ones. I understand your pain it is really tuff when you see those numbers staring at you.

Hi Joy, I kept thinking about this. Then I finally remembered that I didn't have a scale at all the whole time I was losing weight--just weighed in once a week at w.w. And occasionally would sneak a weigh-in at work on one of the hospital scales. I finally got a scale when my weight loss became maintenance of a sort. But I wouldn't worry about your scale and the different weights. It is really just a trend of what is going on in your body.
The only thing that I noticed about my scale is that when I would prop it up against the wall (to keep it out of the way) and then put it down to weigh me, it would have wild weight swings. I guess it got out of balance. I like mine okay. It is a homedics. But I think there are a lot of nice scales out there
Mine does the same thing, too. I usually just go with the first number I get. And I only really count my once-per-week number, daily weighings are more just to gauge things. Even the calibrated scales can differ. My diabetes nurse-educator said her scale is 3 pounds more than that of the nutritionist next door--go figure.
Some digital scales--our old one, for example--are sensitive to being moved. The instructions said to disregard the first number if you move the scale (such as sliding it around on the floor, for example).
