This
morning, like many days, I stared bleary-eyed at the bathroom scale
I was standing on and realized I'd been reading it wrong. With these
old eyes, that 4 inch dial and all those little markings for each
individual pound, I was actually seeing the wrong marks, being off by 5 lbs. It doesn't even show the
numbers I need to keep track of on this diet, only having numerals for
every 20 pounds, 140, 160, 180 etc.
So,
a pair of pliers, a few minutes on the computer and voila, a custom
dial on my 20 year old bathroom scale. Now, as the photo shows, the
scale only has the numbers I need, marking off every 5 lbs. And I saved the cost of a new, Big Number scale.
As
I've mentioned before, counting every pound, every day, just adds stress. All you need to see, is that scale moving down 5 lbs. at a time, and not bouncing back up.
Remember!
1
bite at a time, and 1 day at a time!
KRASH
I need a better scale. I can't read the numbers without my glasses! What an old man I've become. My supper tonight was smoked salmon(Aldi's;from Norwegia), bread, cheese, sliced tomatoes(salted and peppered), mixed fresh fruit, and a slightly oaked Chardonnay.
