Ok sbs - I'll bite at that one. Not weighing myself and monitoring, was how I gained in the first place.

I'm an analyst at work. Details are my life So it's not a surprise that I weigh in 4x a day on a regular schedule, and have since I started LC'ing. Some may consider this obsessive. My dh is Type II diabetic - he checks his blood on a monitor 4x a day. Obsessive? Nope - alive.

I want to know how EVERYTHING I eat and everything I do affects my weight. That's the only way it won't creep back up on me.

I need to know what impacts me, as soon as it impacts me. Not sorting through the 100 things I did and ate all week to try and figure out what went wrong long after the fact.

I'm not making this my recommendation, it's just what I do.
