Well, a few days ago I said I was going to stick with my old scale during the challenge but I think I'm going to reverse that decision and use the new scale.
1. There is a discrepancy between old and new scales (this morning 215 old/ 216.4 new) but it's not in my favor so I won't be cheating for the challenge.
2. I really like having a more accurate and precise reading. Old scale goes in half-pound increments; new scale goes in two-tenths of a pound.
3. I've been waiting to transition to a new scale, waiting to find a time when I wouldn't be mentally anguished by "giving up" a pound or two in exchange for more accuracy. I'm there now - going "up" to 216 doesn't bug me. Much.
I hope you've all had a good Father's Day. I've been thinking especially of Jacquie and her family today, and sending my warmest wishes to all of you.
I'm sending you over great vibes for the new scale...last thing we want to do is piss it off.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to head over to Jacquie too and leave her some words of support.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
OMG don't even worry about the challenge while switching scales- the process itself is scary enough and sometimes traumatic LOL, stupid scales, they will drive us insane!
ReplyDeleteThank you for thinking of me Kristin. I had a few "moments" but mostly, I had a very good day spending time with my husband at the seafood festival. I sometimes lose sight of the fact that God spared my husband for a reason and I owe it to Steve to move forward.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a wonderful Fathers Day!
