I don't know how long I have had the scale I have, but I decided it is time for an upgrade. My scale is digital, but only measures to the half pound. It is also a little off. I am always lighter at my Weight Watchers weigh-ins, which is always a pleasant surprise. In fact that is one of the reasons I have kept my scale. I like that little rush when I have a bigger loss than I expected. You would think a rational person knowing the home scale is higher would not get that little lift. Nope, not me, I'll stay in denial as long as I can. You never know, when that scale might just decide to sync up with the "gold standard" WW scales.
After a while on any weight loss program the numbers slow down and it gets a little harder to lose. I think a new scale that will show me as I lose in the tenths will help my motivation a bit. Where in the beginning I felt like I failed if I didn't lose 2 pounds or more a week, now I am happy with a .8 or even .4. So I think I will shop around and see if I can get an upgrade. I think I have earned it.
True confession time: Couldn't resist the pizza last night. Ate 2 slices of cheese and (gulp) one sausage. I don't even want to know how many points that is. With pizza, it is really hard to stop at one slice! I am better off not eating any. On the positive side, I am supposed to walk this weekend so that will help.
I'll keep ya posted..
