Digital stuff often comes with a plastic protector over the LCD screen with some printing on it. If your scale comes with these numbers on it, simply don't remove the plastic and never turn ON the scale when you use it. What a great way to lose weight! I'm down to 87kg now... that's 16kg down since July. And I can climb 12 flights of stairs without stopping. That's 10 more than I could do in July too! and when I stop, I only need to rest for a minute or two, then I can do another 6 without stopping. I've decided that when my next birthday rolls around, I will celebrate 64 instead of 66. Hell, everything else is going down. Why not my age too?!? Stitchawl |

Maybe if I can keep up the good work I will get to 62 kilos for real. I have not been that slim for about 6 years (about the same time since I have not had a cigarette )
wow 16kg! I am down about nearly 4kg to 75kg (even though I thought I was there last week, I was leaning forwards), but really only trying properly since last month. I finally went back to the Thursday night class at the gym, so three classes a week instead of 2 should help too. Not really missing the alcohol too badly. I seem to look and feel more lumpy, but my waist seems to be getting smaller. I have not lost fat evenly, but I am glad that my t-shirts now seem a little longer. |

Dear diet diary,
This week I have lost another half a kilo, and today after deciding I needed a BIG breakfast because I was hungry, decided not to eat the second piece of toast because I was full! And I didn't put any olive oil spread on the first piece. yippee. Poor last bit of toast is still in the toaster looking sad and cold. I cooked the egg(only one - bloke had two) with a little coconut oil (apparently is better for not getting Alzheimer's), maybe it made me full too! Waiting for postie parcel deliveries - expecting my new solar body scales, AND hopefull my new solar kitchen scales so I can properly measure food. Am I getting a little obsessed? I don't mind if it means I will get under 70 kilos. |

- my new bathroom scales have come and they say I am lighter than the old rubbish ones! Next week's check in is going to look like I have lost 2 kilos!
What would you trust better? German engineering - new digital scales $100, or old Big W wobbly dial scales $17?? Is it like expensive clothes that have smaller sizes to make you feel skinnier? |

I just have to mentally note that next week's larger loss will be because of the change of scale, and continue with chasing the trend.

OK - I am kinda happy that after lunch I still weigh less than I did first thing this morning. Even though I know it is not real.

Exactly so. I weigh myself every morning just before my shower. One just has to ignore the daily variation, and watch the trend over a week or two.
