Comments on: I used to frequent truck stops http://www.learnfitness.com/2010/02/i-used-to-frequent-truck-stops/ Sharing my health & fitness journey one day at a time Tue, 07 Sep 2010 13:10:49 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Heather http://www.learnfitness.com/2010/02/i-used-to-frequent-truck-stops/comment-page-1/#comment-610 Heather Sun, 28 Feb 2010 20:10:48 +0000 http://www.learnfitness.com/?p=1973#comment-610 Thanks for writing about something I've never even considered before. This is one of my favourite things about reading blogs like yours - it really helps me to broaden my perspective and gives me a chance to better understand what goes on internally when people are looking to lose weight and get fit (beyond any of my own personal experiences and experiments). All the best, Heather Thanks for writing about something I’ve never even considered before.

I've actually been trimming mine of people that haven't used it in more than 7 days (New Years folks mostly). I usually email them first to see if they are still around though. I tried a few scales out when I first started working out but was in the same boat as you, I didn't register on any of them. That's what motivated me to try and find one I could actually use. I mentally wanted to see the number move and I'm glad I did as it was a huge motivator. Congrats on the weight loss so far, keep up the great work and blogging about it.

I would have found that even more embarrassing, especially if the scale didn't move between weighing in. Unsurprisingly the truck stop I frequented also have a Subway … I sometimes grabbed myself a healthy 6" for the road after weighing in.

Anyway, this was a very touching post. I still remember when I weighed myself on the scale my husband had bought for himself only to be horrified that I was literally "off the scale". It's not a digital scale and it had increments higher than 350 but I was indeed above that 350. That was one of the reasons I decided to lose weight. Now I'm finally registering within the numbers on the scale but I'll always remember how I felt when I first weighed myself.

That had to be really embarrassing. I like the truck stops here.. it has a 24 hour subway :) LOL the title of your blog post caught my eye… seriously, you went to the truck stop to get on the scale?
