Smile Ready to lose with support and empathy

Hey all. I am once again on the road to lose weight. I am hoping to lose about 30lbs but since I don't own a scale, and am afraid to hop on one, I will have to rely on how my clothes fit for a while. Has anyone out there had success without weighing themselves obsessively?
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Welcome, Sometime it is best not to be rely too heavily on the scale. A tape measure works fine. Good luck

I still catch myself weighing obsessively and it is not good. Once a week should be sufficient. Relying on the scales could easily make one discouraged. Believe me!!!!

Hey Roxy! I don't have a scale either, so I just measure myself once per week. My ticker says that I'm 175 because that's the last weigh-in I had about a month ago, but since then I've lost many inches without having to obsess over the scale!
