I watched a show on cable following up on people who has gastric bypass...one woman's story really hit home for me...she said that the scale is now her enemy...her whole life depends on the number that she sees on that scale in the morning...it rules what she eats, how much she eats, if she can have anything extra...she's gone a whle day without eating because of the number on the scale...her big fear is that she will gain 5lbs...her biggest fear is that she will be back at 240lbs (her starting weight). I'm not as bad as that but I do find that my day is colored by what I see on the scale in the morning. I haven't gone a whole day without eating, but my mood and how I see myself is mirrored in that daily numbered. I try and put it all in perspective but it's hard...all my success and possible failure are based on those numbers. I can see excusing a 5lbs weight gain as just a fluctuation in body weight...then it's 6lbs, then 10...before I know it it's back in size 32 pants...how real is that fear??

I find daily fluctuations of body weight seem to simply *happen*...sometimes you can put your finger on the reason and other times it makes no sense...Try not getting on the scales every day...make conscious healthy choices and record your weight only once a week...When I'm focused - like I am right now - (but wasn't for a year!) - weekly weigh ins are something to look forward to for me... Knowing that weigh in day is looming helps me stay on task and focused...and if I'm true to my eating plan - I'm generally REALLY happy with the scale God!! huggies...>D

I saw that program too and the woman's fiance was worried that she wouldn't eat anything if the scale said she'd gained half pound. She was/is so self concisious but after her bypass and other plastic surgery, she really looked healthy. I hope all that therapy is helping out for her.
