I like the doctor's scale!!!

  • I went to the doctor for my annual exam and his scale had me down another 2 pounds since Friday!
    I am not sure if the scale was wrong or if I actually lost another 2 pounds. I've had a good week so far.
    I am going with the doctor's scale!

    That means I am 2 pounds away from losing a total of 30 pounds!

    This feels sooooo good!
  • very good, congrats....
  • Gotta love it when your scale and the Doctor's are so close! Even better that your Doctor's is lower than yours is!

    I had the same experience last week (my doctor's and my scale were about half a pound apart). I was so worried that her scale would be 10 pounds higher than mine!!!

    It's that outside verification that we're doing it properly and it truly is working! Hooray!
  • That's great news, especially since the doctor's scale can be so scary. The last time the doctor weighed me, I hadn't weighed myself in a while and wasn't prepared for the result. I shouted "Oh my God!" and when the nurse saw the horror on my face, she knocked off 5 pounds on my chart out of sympathy. That was a bit of a wake up call. Hopefully, my next doctor visit will be more pleasant, like yours. Keep up the great work!
  • GC-

    That story cracked me up ... the fact that your nurse knocked off 5 lbs is really funny. Only funny in that way that I can SO relate. My Doctor said, "I know the scale is right, but if it makes any difference, you sure look like you don't weigh that". I laughed hard. Like thanks for the sympathy comment LOL
  • LOL!!!

    That is funny! The nurse made me feel pretty good too because she started the scale at 150 thinking I would fall within 150-199. It starting laughing and said thank you - you just made my day.
    Then nurse said - where do you keep it!

    I've had a smile on my face all day!!! I could not concentrate at work!

    Those words will be my motivation to get through The Biggest Loser workout tonight!
