It's time to challenge myself. I have been putting this off for way too long. I already determined what I want done to myself and what my goal should be. This challenge is not about starting off with a bang, it's just about starting. Before I could do any of that dieting thing I think I should face my demon and actaully buy myself a SCALE! I do not like seeing my numbers and I'm not sure if I ever want to, but I MUST!!!

Time to make the scale a friend and time to kick off my shoes and get on it. I know I won't like what I see and I probably won't like it for a while. Hopefully all that bad will push me to LOOSE and see the GOOD

Wish me luck! Here we go!

Welcome to the forum! Please remember, whatever you see, the number on the scale does not define what type a person you are! Best of luck on your weight loss journey!

If you are shocked by the number, it won't last that long. The anticipation of getting on the scale is much worse than actually doing it.

I recently got on my parents scale after about a year - my heart pumping hard and I could feel myself become flushed as I looked down at the number.

I was 8 lbs more than I estimated I was. It wasn't as bad as how I'd pictured it. I moved on quickly and stepped up my calorie counting game.

Don't worry!
