And before anyone scolds me for using the scale - I attach no personal value to it. It's just data. Nothing more. I love using statistics when I write history, and this is really no different. It's just a statistic that helps me understand my body and how it reacts to things - the consequences of my actions - a little better.
I applaud you for adopting that kind of attitude regarding the scale.
Unfortunately I cannot seem to let go of my life long habit of attaching far too much significance to the number on that damn piece of equipment and allowing it to affect my entire day and mood.
After starting the LCHF WOE back in July of 2008, I was on the scale constantly and never did reach that magic number that I had hoped for, but, the inches definitely changed and
at this point, I go by the fit of my size 10 Levis, and those are not pull up, elastic waist jeans but the real jeans with a waistband and a zipper! If they fit, I'm good to go and I don't care what the scales indicate!
I have "buried" my scale in the far reaches of my closet and that is where it will stay!!!!
