Everyday Systems

I have decided to commit to this program and see it through because I have tried everything and nothing has worked for me and I can't live like this any longer, constantly thinking about food and my next snack or drink (usually coffee with cream which is a snack for me).

I know how much I've gained because of the way my clothes fit or should I say don't fit.

I threw out my scale in the summer when I got frustrated with Atkins and fluctuating weights and the scale not moving. I also have a tendancy to get obsessive with it. Admittidly I'm scared to see the # on the scale. I lost 10bls on WW over 3 months and gained it all back and more I'm afraid in one month binge eating. SO ashamed.

On the other hand if I can see progress it might encourage me to keep going because I'm not going to notice my clothes getting looser until at least a 5lb loss.

Do you weigh yourself or just go by your clothes?

Thanks!

I don't weigh myself.

This question comes around a lot. Here's a prior discussion you may find useful.

I don't weigh myself, either. In fact, I don't own a scale.

Personally, I weigh in every day that I'm near my scales in the morning. I record a weight every Monday on a 3x5 card that I keep in my daytimer to keep track of trends. This seems to work well for me.

I weigh daily and average it once a week. For progress' sake, you might weigh in now and then again in a month, but only if you are complying with the program. Or any variation of the above.
