I hopped on the scale this morning, and there below my needing to be painted toenails, said the magic numbers - 122, my goal weight. Inside I felt a flourish of excitement, but I knew it was to good to be true. So I weighed again. 122. Still, couldn't be right - I don't feel like I'm at goal.
I weighed again tonight, 123.5. Which is fine :) I just need to start shaping up, working out.
But seeing the numbers on the scale really made my day :) I haven't seen those numbers in YEARS. It made me feel that much motivated to finish the end of my weight loss!

How exciting!!! Congratulations!!! :carrot: I would go by the the 122...my weight always goes up a little (sometimes as much as 3 or 4 lbs) later in the day after I've eaten...even after I've had something to drink. I always weigh myself before anything goes in my mouth for the day...that's the "TRUE" number I go by :)

Congratulations. I agree with the above poster weight fluctuates during the day because of what we are eating and drinking. I consistently weigh first thing in the morning.

Congrats, that's awesome! I also agree with the others saying to use the morning weight - I can fluctuate as much as 3-5lbs during the day depending on what I eat and how much I drink.

Congratulations!!! I'm sure you're just elated to see that number on the scale. Shoot, I get excited when the scale goes down a couple pounds! I can't imagine how it will feel to accomplish what we've all set out to do.
So again, CONGRATS!!

Don't be getting on and off the scale, take the first number that it shows. Getting on and off only causes confusion.
