Best of luck on your weightloss journey. My personal opinion: While a scale can be discouraging when it keeps going up or isn't going down fast enough while dieting, I feel it is an invaluable tool to REALISTICALLY track what you are doing (e.g. when dieting you may think you are eating "better" but maybe still eating too many calories so you can tweak when you see the scale go up). Also, if you weighed yourself more frequently, you probably would have gotten alarmed months ago when that weight was creeping up and that may have motivated you to get on track much earlier.
