Good start

Well I got the scales and this morning I stepped on them to find I am 5 kilos lighter than I was told at my medical. I'm under no illusions that this is all down to diet and exercise as its only been 2 days more the fact that I had all my clothes on at the time and having spoken to a few other people who have also said her scales were wrong. Still I know I am still overweight doesn't matter who says it and having overcome my reluctance to get on scales I am determined to keep up the good work and try and lide at least a stone (mote would be great) before I go back to nurse in July. Right now I am in the zone so here goes for staying that way.

Brilliant! I always go on the number on my own scales because I weigh me in a morning before I get dressed or have anything to eat. It is bound to be different weighing in clothes and after food etc so I ignore the hospital's higher weight if they weigh me. It usually varies by about 4lb. You sound like you've got the bit between your teeth and so there is no reason why you shouldn't have lost more weight by your next visit. Good luck :)

As long as you stick to one set of scales for your Weigh Ins, and are prepared for the next Weigh In with the Nurse to be higher than your own, all will be well. 🙂
