I can't weigh myself everyday. You don't really drop any significant weight in just one day, so to me, everyday feels like a failure when I don't see any change. Sure, on the 30th day you might be minus some pounds, but those 29 days before that you weighed seem kind of pointless to me. I'd rather weigh myself every 3 months at the docs and see -10 pounds or so and feel awesome!

This issue is what actually got me online searching for support. I've lost 45 lbs but am gaining weight back. I'm doing the Insanity workout (I have three weeks left) and have lost 11.5 inches but the scale is creeping up and I'm losing my motivation because of what the scale is telling me. I have struggled with my weight all of my life and it's very discouraging to see. Logically I understand what is happening, it's definitely a mental thing, but I can't seem to break through my mindset or my horrible addiction to the scale.

I'm hoping I found the right place to get myself back on track and in the right mindset again!

Yep, a high number on the scale triggers a binge and bad eating patterns the rest of the day and maybe more to come. I am not getting on the scale again anytime soon. I will use clothes to judge how I am doing, period.
