I guess I'm just a bit dizzy from the lack of sugar this week in phase 1, but as I stepped onto my scale this morning, I realized that there are many ways to do this. Personally, I currently step onto the scale one foot at a time, look straight ahead, say a little prayer, hold my breath and only then do I look down. What do you do?

I sometimes cross my fingers..LOL!!!
I also step on right foot first. And I usually will weigh about 4 times. The first time is just to get the #, the second time to get body fat % and hydration level. I've tried the weighing before and after showering as well and I never get a lower # after a shower. However, I have found sometimes that if I weigh and then walk around a bit doing miscellaneous little chores around the house and then come back about 15 minutes later, the scale is usually about 1/2 a pound lower. I have no idea why this is, but I'll take a lower # anytime I can get it!!!
I had a 'scale surprise' yesterday morning. As everyone probably already knows, I'm fighting my way down to under 200 right now. When I first stepped on the scale yesterday morning, it said 199.8!!! Well, I was so excited that I went to get my camera to 'record the moment'. It had registered 199.8 twice, but when I returned with my camera it went up to 200.6, which is still a low, but obviously not what I was hoping for. Well, I know that camera weighs something, but I doubt it's 1/2 a pound!!! Anyway, I decided that I would hold off on saying that I'm under 200 for now. What do you all think??? Should I go ahead and claim it now or wait until I see it again???

I say "claim it", you worked darn hard to get that number and it is what it is (the first time). LOL.
I say have DH hold the camera for the picture and claim the 199!!!
WHOO-HOO!!!
Thanks Kathy!!!
I've been just afraid of claiming it this soon. Most days I've been around 200.6 or 200.8, so I was thinking that under 200 was just a fluke. But, this morning, I'm at 200.2, so maybe it's not a fluke after all!!!

Ok, you've talked me into it!!!
I started just to change my ticker to the 200.2 that I saw this morning, but what the heck, it really did show 199.8 yesterday morning, if only for 2 times!!!
If DH had been here, he would have heard all the hollering going on when I saw that # on the scale!!!
The camera is now in the bathroom, ready to capture the next time the scale goes under 200!!!
Thanks Michelle!!!
