Scale Dilemma
I'm trying to get away from the concept of "diet." I think it was Kara who posted that she is struggling with the idea of being on a diet and waiting to "eat normal" again. This made me realize I was doing the same thing much of the time. But really, "normal" eating is what keeps getting me fatter so it isn't something I can ever go back to.
So my tactic now is to "embrace SBD as a lifestyle change," as I'm telling and retelling myself. Well, if that is true, then I shouldn't be getting on the scale every day, right? Dieters get on the scale multiple times in a week, and I don't want to be a dieter (even though I *have* set a 5-lbs-a-month goal for myself).
What do you recommend? Get on the scale once a month to see if I lost 5 lbs.? Throw the scale out and just watch how my clothes fit? Or just keeping weighing myself several times a week for the rest of my life?
