The one week no weighing yourself challenge. Any takers? Help me out here!
I know not everyone does this, but I weigh myself once a day and it doesn't do me any good. I'm eating right, exercising, blah blah blah. You know the drill. Up a lb, down two, up .5, etc
Starting tomorrow until next week Friday, no weighing and checking in everyday. I want to break this habit.
Anyone?
I'm cheating because I will be on vacation and there will not be a scale to tempt me. Nonetheless, I accept your challenge.
I keep putting it away but then my husband drags it back out. Men suck. He loses 5lbs in two days by just thinking about it
This will be tough... given my selfish narcissism.
I accept your challenge. D: <
This will kill me. Weighing myself is part of my morning routine. D:
You're on. I have to go hide the scale.
You go girl! It's good thing to break that obsession, your worth as a person is determined by more than just a number on a scale.
I'd like to join. I haven't weighed myself since August 1 and don't plan to weigh myself again until August 29th.
I gave my scales to my daughter.. so when I want to weight I have to go to her house. works for me.. Ok im in.
I definitely, absolutely, have to have to have to do this. My scale is my worst damn enemy right now. I'm in that place where I have started doing some strength training and whenever I do it, the scale skyrockets. And then I actually think to myself that I should take a few days off from strength training to make my weight go back down, eventhough my clothes still fit the same way if not better. It is a sick, sick relationship I have with my scale. I am leaving for NY tomorrow night and will be busy/away from the scale until Friday anyway. So this is perfect. And eventhough I know that I will definitely not do so well food wise in NYC, there is a huge free gym where I'm staying and a pool, so I will up my workouts the whole time and not think about the scale at all. Thank you for giving me an excuse to do this. weigh in tomorrow morning and again next Friday?
I'm not weighing in tomorrow, my next step on the scale will be a week from today but that's my goal
I just ate a crappy lunch, I don't want to get on the scale tomorrow anyway
I will join as well this is my second day on this site and I think this will be the first challenge for me. I will start with you. I'm in. Can't wait to see the results!!
i'm in.
i weigh myself multiple times a day, ranging from 5 times to 25 times a day.
I usually weigh myself more than once a day too, and then it can affect my mood for the whole day or night... :P I was actually thinking this morning that I should do something like this, so I'm in, too! I know it will be hard -- REALLY hard, since it's such an ingrained habit to help me stay on track -- but I think I need to do it, for my MENTAL health! :}
I had my boyfriend hide my scale on august 1 and i told him it can't come back out until august 31st.
I figured that would be the only way i could keep myself from obsessively weighing.
I would accept your challenge, but i can't weigh in on fridays until the month is over ;)
I only weigh in every 2 weeks my Husband hides the scale and only gives it to me on weigh days as well. I weigh in on the 23rd of August so I will Be here supporting you as well even if I cant personally weigh in with everyone else.
I tend to weigh myself 20 times a day, too, ericainrecovery. This will be a challenge, but I shall try!
...starting tomorrow.
=/
Count me in. :)
I weigh myself at least twice a day and it needs to stop. Since I've started exercising I've seen major changes in my body, and I'm so positive about my progress...until I step on the scale. I've only lost 4 lbs and my goal is to lose 30. I try to convince myself that it's just muscle mass and the numbers don't mean anything, but I just can't stop myself from constantly running to the scale.
I'm going to try and stay off the scale for as long as possible. At least a week, but it would be nice if I could go for a month... :)
What the hell, I'm in. It's not going to be easy, but it's more habit than anything at this point. I know everyday is different and if I'M getting smaller I could care less if the numbers are.
I will admit I'll miss the pre and post workout weigh...which I ONLY do because it makes me giggle to see how I "lose" 2 or 3 pounds during my workout. It's a perfect example of how ridiculous relying on a scale is anyway.
Ugh. I need to do this too. I have to weigh in tomorrow for two challenges, but then I will not weigh in again until a week from tomorrow! UGH!!!!
Day one: weight unknown.
alright. I did weigh today, but just because I have another weigh in. and then I immediatel put the scale upside down in the closet. I'm ready. T minus 7 days and counting.
