Get a bathroom scale

for my bathroom scale is to weigh my suitcases before a flight

I’ve realized scales don’t help any, they just make you feel bad about being yourself.

It’s not about your weight, its about how you FEEL.
If you feel healthy then you’re just fine.
If you don’t feel healthy, try to make it a goal.

I got a scale for Christmas that also measures your body fat and water percentages (with customizable input data). Yay!

I have one in my bathroom and weigh myself whenever I feel like it, probably once or twice a week. I didn’t have one for the longest time but finally bought one after being surprised by the scale at the doctor’s office. I’m the kind of person who gains weight and before I know it, I’m seriously overweight. So I just like to keep myself in check. I mean, isn’t it better to see that I’m up 5 lbs and have the chance to work it off before it gets really serious? That happened to me once and it is not going to happen again.

worth it, but only weigh yourself once a day (when you wake up) without clothes. know that your weight fluctuates a little each day because of many factors (if you’ve gone to the bathroom yet, if you’re retaining water, etc.) don’t let it rule your life. oh, and don’t even bother weighing when you are pmsing or on your period. you will always be heavier, so don’t torture yourself.

Can you say “obsessive”? I would get on it 400 times a day…not good.

I was once obsessed with weight, now I simply don’t watch it anymore. For 10 years, I just don’t know how much I weight.

you get to watch your own. i can now weigh myself in the privacy of my own home atmy leisure. this is a great investment.

In addition to weight, this scale measures body fat % and body water % (to make sure you are properly hydrated). I’m not taking any actions to change my lifestyle at this point, but I’m looking forward to tracking this information (maybe even making little graphs in Excel if I really have alot of time on my hands).

As of now I am just squeeking under the line in the healthy range, according to my new scale.

P.S. Note to feminists, sensitive guys and all body-positive crusaders who don’t know me yet: I love my body just the way it is (and so does my partner) and this isn’t about shame or guilt, it’s about being proactive with my health.

and it’s earmarked for a new scale! Maybe I’ll even go today.
