Wearbear - I agree with you completely

"Don't guess - Know"

Part of my self discovery journey is daily weighing so that I can see when I am retaining fluid and gaining a couple of pounds. I go back to what I ate the day before to see what I ate that might have caused the fluid retention. If I only weigh weekly, I never know whether it is a blip or a real weight gain.

The old adage "my eyes are bigger than my stomach" comes in to play when I am "eyeballing" amounts. Weighing and measuring gives me a true account of what I am putting into my mouth.

My computer program allows me to see my weight loss journey in a graph. When I do not weigh and measure - I gain.

Perhaps in another 2 months, I might be able to relax a little, but if history repeats itself, I will regain what I have lost.
