HOLY COW!

Is what I said when I stepped on my new scale. C'mon now! The old one must've been total junk (uh...it WAS total junk) and the new one says I am 6.5 lbs heavier. UGH! I told myself I would never be over a certain amount and I am half a pound over that weight. Well, at least I know exactly where I am at in the weight department, but instead of 30 pounds, now I need to lose 40.

Just wanted to vent I guess.

Welcome to the world of new scales,LOL!! I think we all go through that when we get a new one, it is no fun. Sorry that you weren't happy with the number but I am sure you are now doubly motivated to get that 6.5 pounds off plus what ever else you need to lose.}(

Hope you evening gets better!!

:D
 
I agree. You look beautiful- I really like your hair! Trust me, with Cathe's workouts you'll reach your goal weight in no time. Good luck and cheer up!

Shirley, why do you even bother with scales anyway? How long have you been doing weights? Muscle weighs more in poundage than fat!!! That's ok. Your clothes will look better. I meant to reply to one of your other posts, you are very cute! You kind of look like Princess Fergie just softer around the edges. Very Cute!

So are you gonna try to hook up with us in April? I'm not kidding! I may arrange some sort of group Cathe Workout the next morning before everyone leaves. That should clear our dull, morning-hangover headache. Don't you think?

You gals are so sweet! Actually, that photo was taken before I gained 15-20 extra pounds. I'm just getting back into working out/healthy eating. (The healthy eating is the hardest part for me.) Since I need to lose weight, I do need to weigh myself; but my main indicator if I'm losing weight will be how my clothing fits. I really miss wearing my nice clothes.

I would love to meet with you gals in April! I'm not sure if DH would want me to go. We'll see.

I know what you mean.I bought my mom a new scale for her b-day and I weigh more on her's then I do on mine and its the same scale.Not to bad though,its only by 2 lbs.

Shirley, you are absolutely beautiful! Love the picture! Did you set it up? I love the background and all too. Beautiful! To stay on topic: I went for my yearly GYN last Friday and their scales weigh me SIX pounds heavier then my scales! Waaah, but, I had lost 3 1/2 pounds according to their chart from last year! :7 I truly do NOT go by scales. Every year my goal is to get back into the shorts I wore last summer and the jeans I wore the winter before. If I can do that, I am happy. If they are TIGHT, I need to work a lil' harder and eat cleaner. Don't let the number do a trick on you. It MAY be muscle! That's my excuse! ;-)

Ok Shirley I won't make any comments on your weight b/c enough has been said. I just want to say you're a very pretty woman.

Well, I stepped on my new scale this morning and it said I weigh 71 pounds. My 9 yo daughter said she stepped on it and it said she weighed 224 pounds. LOL!!! Needless to say, this scale is going back to the store.

As for the photo, DH took it at a bed and breakfast last year.
He told me to sit down and look at him. Thanks for the compliments. I love this board!
