Congrats on taking the icy plunge, Merpig! I have been the same way in the past. I didn't want to look at that scale to see how much I might have regained and so I avoided it.......for years!! Now here I am having gained back all my weight and then some. It's very sobering but that's reality!

I've lost 6 lbs since last Sat, probably half of that at least is water. I'm moving in a positive direction and I need to make sure that scale is my best friend from now on.
