Doctors say if you weigh yourself everyday, you won't lose weight. try once every 2 weeks or so. Or like Mikayla said, measure yourself.
Reply from Mikayla, Age 15 - 07/29/06 - IP#: 24.18.50.xxx Weighing yourself everyday is OCD also. Your weight fluctuates too much. If someone weighs themself everyday they are too obsessed. If you MUST weigh yourself, weigh once a week.
Reply from Mikayla, Age 15 - 07/28/06 - IP#: 24.18.50.xxx As I have said many times before, everyone relies on the scale far too much. Measure yourself. Scales are stupid and unreliable. Start measuring yourself in your bust, waist, hips, and thighs once every two weeks. It will make you feel sooooooo much better than what those numbers are. trust me. My weight hasnt gone down in 2 months (its gone up actually) and I am down 2 dress sizes since then.
