Plucked up my courage ...

[HeavyFoot]

... and stepped on the bathroom scales this morning for the first time in 6 months.

What a relief! 🙂

The battery had run out.

Must buy a new one within the next 6 months. 😇

Love that!!

[sofaspud]

Haha. Maybe it’s a sign to focus on non-scale wins?

[Lizcanrun Graduate10]

Love it!

[RunBrianRun Graduate10]

[SaskAlliecat Graduate10]

Perhaps don't bother. You know if you've gained or lost weight - scales make us a slave to stats rather than how we feel or look, or how tight or loose pur clothes are! 😂

[HeavyFoot Graduate10 in reply to Roxdog]

Very true. I know I’ve put on weight. Just being in France is calorific. The question for me was simply, how much weight. Am I carrying one bag of spuds too much, or two? All my times are 5-10% slower than this time last year. I know that my legs are much stronger.

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to HeavyFoot]

My one bag of spuds too much has slows me down about the same amount

[HeavyFoot Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

It stands to reason. If you’re running through an airport to catch a plane, a bag weighing 5 kg isn’t going to help.

That was lucky wasn’t it 😀

[Jell6 Graduate10]

Made me laugh 😅🤣

[Tinytears60 Graduate10]

Now if that isn’t a sign from above then I don’t know what is! 👌🤣🤣

Save your pennies and resist the urge to buy batteries 🔋🙈 put it towards a nice bottle of red 🍷

[HeavyFoot Graduate10 in reply to Tinytears60]

I seem to have done both. Batteries ordered online. Bottle opened having been abstemious for a week.🍷

[Maz1103 Graduate10 in reply to HeavyFoot]

If we exercise we deserve a treat. I am having a 🍷or 2 after my first 10k.

[Tinytears60 Graduate10 in reply to HeavyFoot]

A week! 😳

Aren’t you good 👌🍷 Enjoy! 😀

[HeavyFoot Graduate10 in reply to Tinytears60]

Yes, a week. I celebrated a bit much when I thought USA election finally decided. A bit precipitous as well!! 🤔
