The Scale... why do you mock me?

Dear Scale,

I just wanted to let you know that I think it is cruel and unusual punishment to be off from my gym scale. 4 pounds makes a lot of difference! I have been eating better, no cokes and burning at least 500 calories a day through exercise. Is a 2lb loss too much to ask for? Could you at least be in the same arena as my scale at the gym. You know I am have tempted to go to the gym scale and bring you with me. Then you could try to be out of whack but it wouldn't work. HA!

Please be nicer to me next week.

Your adoring fan,

K

Well, I stepped on the scale this morning and I was the same weight as last week. Now could this be to my little visitor who is to arrive at any moment, could I be gaining muscle over fat or could my body just be being stubborn? Any or all of the above could be what it is doing. But alas, I will give it one more week and see if I see a little (come on, just a pound or two, please!!!) movement.

Signing off from the frustrated place of no scale movement.

I have found that little visitor - and the set of scales you use (even the set of the set of scales you use) can make a huge difference.

Good luck!

Don't get discouraged. Water weigh from the vistor will make a big difference. Hang in there you are doing great.
