I'm in need of a group like this because I do not want to weigh daily!
This weight loss journey has been different because I am trying to heal from food issues, not just lose weight. This has included over a decade of binge / starve cycles, punctuated by excessive exercise (then none at all). I eat for the wrong reasons. I restrict out of guilt and over obsess with calories in and out...
I've been healing and am starting to occasionally feel "normal" when I eat. So, I think healing is possible. But I realized that weighing daily for me, is still a lingering symptom of my obsessive phases. I am in one now, where I have to talk my self into putting cheese on a sandwich, without being plagued by guilt and the need to exercise it off later. (During binging phases I have a whole different set of behavoirs I deal with as they come)
So, as part of healing I can not weigh myself more than once a week. I've never been able to not weigh daily, and the number becomes something I obsess over, and it effects my entire day. In the past, if its a pound up even around TOM, I would restrict, eating maybe 800 cals that day, trying to "lose" that pound)
I know some people can weigh daily and its ok, but for me its a behavoir that has to go...and so...
I weighed in today. I will weigh in only on Sundays. Weaning off the scale...probably going to go through withdrawl! lol seriously though, if I can't check my weight, I tend to over restrict even more, for fear that I'm gaining and its going unchecked...
Anyone else want to stop weighing daily? Or am I just crazy? lol
