Ahhh Yes
« on: February 03, 2012, 09:00:30 AM »
Good morning all,

Got on the scale this morning, and after only being back on FTS for less than a week, I am back on track and losing again!  It felt so good, my oldest son was getting ready to leave for school and I keep my scale in the kitchen (kind of a way to make you think before eating too much) he looked down at the numbers and gave me a said with a big smile on his face. "Nicely done Mamma"  I pushed the scale under the chair and proceeded to dance around the kitchen.

It really works!  You just have to be strong enough to fight those cravings and know that you can still eat and enjoy your food.  It's a matter of paying attention and wanting to be the better you.  I'm back on track. 

Thank you Doug and Umpa for the books, the website and the family you have created through this forum.

I Love You!

Mary

Hi Mary! :)

So happy to hear that you're back on track!
And hearing such praise from your son is too cool! 8) 8) 8)

Having your scale in the kitchen (as a visual deterrent) is a great idea!
If it works for you, by all means, go for it! ;)
What you do today is what matters!

I can see the benefits of having the scale in the kitchen but then you have to weigh your clothes separately so that you can subtract that.

I weigh myself first thing in the morning, bare feet and just my pj's.  Then I head for the coffee pot!

I vote that you just go into the kitchen buck naked and weigh yourself like I do  :)  Truth be told I wait til the house is empty though!!

Congratulations, I don't think I could have my scale in the kitchen (only I can see those numbers ;D)  And my husband would be wide eyed and looking for the weight.  Some things I just can't share with my husband.
