Yeah I have a digital scale in my bathroom but I stopped weighing myself because it upsets me that even though I exercise and try to eat right I am not getting the reading I want and stress causes weight gain so I have vowed to only weigh myself once per week instead of daily like I was doing before.:)

Yes we do have a weighing machine at home but not in the bathroom. It is usually kept in the masterbathroom and we have had it for well over 10 years now. It has nothing to do with us being healthfreaks though - and it is not used so often actually. I think it is important to know how much you weigh anyway, as it can be an indication of health.

i have a weighing scale since i am quite concerned with my weight because women in my family get big once they gave birth. i don't think that that little investment was a waste with my current physique.

I used to have a scale in the bathroom and checked every now and then. But I went to lifting heavy weights to grow more muscle mass ( I have been craving more muscle lately). While I have been growing steadily, I have done nothing but gain weight. My scale went up to 300 pounds. I knew the weights was doing something because I felt bigger, things were small and lighter, and I felt heavier. I stepped on the scale one day and broke the scale, not knowing how much I weighed. I thought it could be repaired, but it couldn't. So I put my newfound muscle mass to work and balled up a metal bathroom scale. I kept getting bigger because I was breaking even more stuff and clothes no longer fit, but I was lifting things that I could never do before. I found a digital scale in a store one day to try it out because it was glass and it could handle 400 pounds. Skeptical that it would break, I tried it and found out what I weighed: 337 pounds. Normally I am not as concerned about my weight, but because I have been gaining muscle lately, I was curious beacuse I need to determine a plateau

I am a bit conscious when it comes to my weight, but I prefer not to have a weighing scale at home. Though I know that weight loss is not really about the numbers on the scale, I'd still like to avoid checking my weight. I might have the tendency to check on my weight every now and then & that will make me paranoid, so it's better for me to just check on the numbers at the gym when my trainer tells me so.
