Weighing tomorrow

[rainbow brite]

GAH! I really hate it when I say I'm going to do one thing and then go right ahead and do another but I've just got off the phone with my mother and we're both in agreement that I need to weigh myself tomorrow.

I was all up for the not weighing for ages thing but it's actually driving me insane. I don't think I'm going to feel too bad about it either - as it stands I currently have nothing bar my determination to motivate me, and let's be frank, my motivation isn't a lot to write home about. Been feeling really low the past couple of days which is not like me at all so I think that a peak at the scales tomorrow might help to boost me out of this funk.

I'm now terrified that I've not lost a single pound though. The mum was insisting that if I could promise her that I haven't cheated (and I can) then I'd be guaranteed a loss but I'm a bit concerned with the amount of people who seem to be not losing anything!

Still, there's no way I could have gained, so that's something!

Sorry to all of the other no-scales-club ladies, but this could be what keeps me going so I have to do it!

Not weighing has always gone badly for me.
I think losing and being able to update you stats and ticker, even if it is just a lb, gives you something to look forward to....that's quite sad isn't it!

Good luck with your weigh in tomorrow. I bet you'll be surprised at what you have lost.

I agree with your mother. This diet is hard enough without having to fight the urge to weigh too. I have done VLCD's many times and have always weighed once a week, with maybe a little peek inbetween but never take any notice of inbetween WI's.

This time around I decided I was not going to WI for 4 weeks. That's becasue I am going for a meal on Saturday (planned) and I did not want to put on a pound or two and get depressed, so the plan was not to weigh until I had been - and even a week after to make it the straight 4 weeks. Anyway, first week it got to me. I NEEDED to see my loss to keep me going and I felt better for it. I have done this diet so many times that I should know not to let a slight gain, or a stay the same, to demotivate me. If you are 100% the weight comes off eventually.

Anyway, sorry to ramble on - if you feel the need to weigh, do it. It will probably make you feel better

Thanks, doll! Will be straight on here to let y'all know!

Haha I guess it does make us sad but when I did LT updating my ticker every Monday was something that I really looked forward to!

It's the little things especially on such a long road!

Mia - thanks sweetie and you're totally right. I used to be a serious 'get up, get naked, pee, weigh' gal but even if I only weigh once a week now I think it'll be a lot better for motivation et al!

So glad it's not just me!

I hope you get a good loss. Have you felt any difference in your clothes yet? How long have you been doing it now?

I couldn't go more than a week without weighing, it would drive me bonkers!

 

[rainbow brite]

Hey Jojo - nope not felt any difference in clothes yet but then I am notoriously slow at noticing these things - it's always when my bestie yells at me to go down a size that I tend to do it!

Been on TS 100% for two weeks now and exactly the same - it's driving me nutso! xD

 

[Blue Butterfly]

I dont fel any different either, my clothes feel like they fit exactly the same and I dont feel like I've lost any weight but the scales are telling me different.

Now I'm all excited about your weigh in too!

Hey RB - I hope tomorrow brings you a good loss
Im also due to weigh-in tomorrow. I've been sneaking on and off the scales all week but, Im the same as Mia on this and I've not been taking much notice of them. Tomorrow's one will count!!
I haven't really noticed any change in myself, but my OH and my parents say that they can see I'm losing (unless they're just trying to keep me happy lol!) ..BRING ON TOMORROW'S WEIGH-IN AND WEEK 2! xx

Thanks, sweets!

YES, here's to tomorrow and lots of whooshies from here on out! arty0011:

 

[Mia]

Yeah, I take no notice of any sneaky weigh-in's I have inbetween. Only the one, same time, same day each week counts for me.

Good luck on your weigh in RB x
