I will spare you the gory details but it involved a hammer and a big smile on my face! Hee hee hee. Now I am feeling liberated and I am off to do some Tae-Bo! >> LOL you rule!!! I loved that post!!!!!!!!!!!!! Barb whose folks bought me a digital battery scale that always has me higher than my old scale so I stopped buying it batteries cuz the thing eats them so I'm starving the scale instead of me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2000 Report Share Posted April 13, 2000 ! Way to go! That scale is a nasty liar anyway. The only reason we want to lose weight is to be smaller right? So if we can get smaller and not lose, who cares what that evil contraption says! Bravo!!! Judie --- Agaw12577@... wrote: > My scale that is. It is dead and I did it!

Now I am feeling liberated > and I am off to do some Tae-Bo! , I'm glad you've destroyed that evil machine...now, maybe you can concentrate on all the other ways you are seeing positive results. I know it's hard to stop relying on that thing, but you will be so much happier and you will see so many more results when you focus on the other ways your body and mind are changing! You don't need that dang scale! Also, think of all the changes your body has undergone in the past year! You've lost a ton of weight (what is it up to now.....75-80 lbs?) and it is only natural that there are going to be points along your journey where you will stay at the same weight for awhile. It's your body's way of catching up with itself. Just because the scale isn't moving at this particular point in time doesn't mean that things aren't happening! It's times like these that you just have to stay focused and look at all the other changes you've made and continue to make on a daily basis. You don't need that scale to tell you how far you've come or how far you will go! who hardly gets on the scale anymore and when she does isn't worried about what it says Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2000 Report Share Posted April 13, 2000 LOL...Ohhh you made me laugh so hard! I think Mike would be mad if I took a hammer to our scale though...since we don't have a lot of money and we bought the scale in the first place. But you made me laugh anyways!! Oops, I killed it... My scale that is. It is dead and I did it! I weighed myself this morning like I do every morning. Once again that same number popped up at me, 170. I got so frustrated that I stomped on it. Well, not just a stomp, I jumped up and down on it. Then I stepped back on and it spit out 174 just to taunt me. That is when I had to do it.
