How did this happen? Hmmm....read back about a zillion pages and you see where I lost my SILTEC scale. Accurate. Simple. I bought a new one that supposedly weighed up to 440 pounds. Digital, I might add. Been weighing on it faithfully every single week and staying plus or minus 2 pounds of where I was. Today I got on the doctor scales. Holy Moly, Batman! Up 27 pounds. They have 2 scales. I weighted the same on both.

Hi - Interesting post - I had two responses - very different when I read it. the first one is a result of my having lost over 100 pounds once and then putting it back on (the only proud thing I can say is I did not put it ALL back on - I stopped just 10 pounds of that ) So my thought was - good for you - at least you are not going to fall all the way back down the hill.
Then, my second thought was to ask if when you were using your SILTEC scale you had weighed at the doctor's and knew that it was the same as your scale at home? 27 pounds would have some impact in your clothes and if you weren't feeling everything being really tighter, then maybe it wasn't really 27 pounds... just a thought and it won't change your current plan of action, but maybe it means you didn't do as bad as you thought. It sounds like your eating was not that horrible and at the very least you should have been able to maintain your weight, but then I could be completely wrong about that.
Finally, the good news in this COULD be that you have learned some important things about how your body reacts to eating, exercise or lack thereof that can only help you achieve your ulitmate goal.
Good luck!
