Tammy Welcome to the club! I know what you mean about the scale... Mine does the same thing. Also can change depending on where I place my feet. I generally try and stand in the same spot, keeping my back strait, and use that every time I weigh in.

CindyG You lucky dog! Have a blast in Italy. It's been years since I've been there, and I had a great time. Pasta is really treated as a side dish, not as the basis of the meal so you shouldn't have much trouble avoiding it.

Everyone Else I didn't see many check in, don't be bashful.
