As in how many days (or even hours) do you have to be at the same weight beforre you consider it official. I haven't changed my stats yet. bucause I have yet to see the same new weight 3 days in a row.

Hey Diane,

Every time I reach a new low, I fire that baby into my profile with lightening speed. I may bounce all around that number for weeks, but is sure makes me feel good every time I look at it.

I'm with Jones~POST THOSE LOSSES AS SOON AS THEY APPEAR!!

A big Yes & I agree!
As soon as the new low shows up, you are there.
I did not wait a second to update my profile this morning when I got up a pound lighter.
Hummm... a great reason for a nice single malt scotch at happy hour tonight!

That's me! Some pounds never come back, some I had to lose 3 or 4 times, but once I see a LOWER number on the scale - I'm right here changing my stats. That is one of my rewards.
PS right now I really weight 169 LOL

Maybe if you put your new low into your stats as soon as you see it, you'll be more likely to keep that number there! I should take my own advice...

Makes me feel so much better to post a lose as soon as I can!!! I just started induction on Tuesday, so if I can see a result I guess it makes me feel better about feeling kind of yucky!!

For me it is OFFICIAL when the I weight the same 2 days in a row or I see loss from one week to another (my new goal is NOT to weight every day)

I suppose I have to agree with Yvonne, it's offical it you wiegh the same two days in a row. BUT mark me down for changing those stats as so as the scale moves Funny you never really see me moving them up in the other direction, then I just claim it as water weight

I totally agree - change it as soon as you have the pleasure of seeing it on the scale. Why not? You obviously lost something, and even if it takes a couple of days to "stick" who cares? You saw it, it was real, and it's yours. So go ahead and adjust your stats - it's like this mini victory, and you can chuckle to yourself as you lower that number, and know that you'll never be back there again. Yay for us!!!

When my weight is set for 2 days straight I also post. I typically bounce all over the place during the week Thankfully its still in a downward trend

OK folks - the post it if ya got it crowd wins. Gonna do it right now!
Diane

OOPs, one more............. it's got to be gone for 2 days before I post, just to be sure, not to mention an accurate profile. I'd hate to look at the numbers knowing, there not right, if I was'nt actually down the pound

Kathy

Now I feel guilty - I'm putting a couple of pounds back on!

That is how we lose weight. It goes up and down =, up and down. It is the pattern of life.

When the scale shows a loss I write it down and that is the weight I will admit to. I don't write down 1/2 lb losses however. I have to have lost a whole pound so that I don't look like I am obsessing.
