Lose 10 Pounds in Five Weeks
Posted by Cottontimer on 28 Feb 2007 | Tagged as: Thoughts
Does this woman look like she needs to lose weight?! And if the idea was that you could lose enough weight to look like her, what is she doing on a scale anyway? If I were her, I’d be spending my time trying on sexy dresses instead of wasting it looking down on a scale. Unless she’s admiring her chest, of course.
When was the last time you stepped on a scale?
By the way, this week is Eating Disorder Awareness Week.

I agree, it’s a stupid advert, but they only ever show skinny people everywhere anyway, except when Dove tries to play the open-minded card.
Scales have been banned in my dwelling for a long time, although my personal intrument of mental torture is the measuring tape. I steal them from IKEA and measure it all compulsively and write everything down and then freak out when the measurements increase *rolls eyes* then I have to have a little measuring tape disposal ceremony and force myself back to normal (ie using dental floss instead).
I’ve been battling obsessions over food for so long that even when I think I’m eating properly I have skewed perceptions of whether I’ve eaten enough — some days I eat non-stop and others I forget to eat. Plus I’m lazy so when I run out of food I can go for a while on sugarlumps or dry pasta. As a result I get lumpier and lumpier! It’s so counter-productive.
i did after the return from India!
I am afraid though to step on it in about two weeks as we all have been spending the last several days munching on all the New Year (Chinese) snacks at office! eeeks! hehehe….
the weighing scale at home is mostly for dad to weigh luggage before he takes off!
So, I use it whenever I feel like it..it averages once a month…
Rosie: OooOOooh. I’ve never thought about using the measuring tape. I can never measure myself properly to buy clothes. I usually gauge whether I’ve gained weight or not by how well my clothes fit or don’t fit. Sometimes my face might look puffy but if the pants fit, so be it.
Smitha: lol My parents also mostly use their scale for luggage!! so funny.
