Weekly Weigh-In 1/23/ - 1/29/05

[sunny59]

Wanted to say hi to all my friends here. My low carb is still doing great, i am into my third week now. Never before in my life could I stick to a diet plan like I can low carb. I think this is the best eating plan ever created. Dr. Atkins really knew what he was talking about when he started this low carb revolution, didn't he.?
I know I am down more lbs. but have not weighed in to see how much but I sure can feel the lbs. coming off me. i will weigh in again on Saturday and report back in to you all with it. I only like weighing in once a week.
Any way i want to go get me some new scales, because the old ones i have are weighing me more than the ones in my doctors office. About five lbs. more. I have them set on zero when i weigh in but they say I am 235 and 1/2 and at my doctors the other day i weighed in at 230lbs. So I will need to check this out more to see which is right. The grocery store up the road from me has a step on scale in there to weigh on so i will run up there later and see what i weigh on it. I know i must stick to one scale and go by just it but i am just curious which is right and what is my real weight.
Have any of you ever had this problem with weighing in different on different scales?
I know I was 245 lbs. when i began low carb on the 10 of this month because I had just come from my doctors the Friday before and he weighed me and thats what i was. If my doctors is right now, then i have lost more than i think I have..
Strange isn't it? see ya later.........

Hi everyone,

I went to my Doctor yesterday got weighed and found out that I've lost 9 pounds.... Whooo Hooo!!!!:bellydanc. I'll take it. I know I'm in for a long slow and steady path to actually losing wieght b/c of all the prescription drugs I'm on but I'm happy to report my lost.

Sunny, I have weighed differently on different scales. Next week I have to go to an office by my docs so I am going to stop in there and see what it ahs to say. Though it will be in the afternoon and in clothes but I can weigh in the morning and then weigh with cloths to see how much to subtract. I just wonder if my scale is good. it should be it's pratically brand new.

I have to add that this will be the first time I visit that I can step on the regular scale and not the large capacity one in a very long time!

Thank you Meg! Makes my day!

Noel - How great is that!

Debra - Excellent!

Sunny - You're right when you say you should stick to one scale. When I first started this woe i weighed on a dial scale because my digital scale weighed me 5 pounds less than I knew i was. after i lost 35 pounds though the digital scale and the dial scale started weighing me the same.

Rhalvhan - Good going on the 2 pounds!

scales, scales, scales, i have 3 of those silly things and each gives me different readings. why do i have 3, i guess im a lil on the obsessive side right now, lol. I do know that if i get the same variance from each scale then they all work properly,lol. I know ya'll dont have to say it, lol, obsessive.
