New Etekcity Smart Fitness Scale (Model ESD93...Amazon) scale arrived last night. Set it up & linked VeSync/FatSecret/Samsung Health. Easy-to-use, nice that it's Bluetooth and came fully charged, no batteries to replace.
Then 'Reality' hit...new scale coordinates with doctor's scale. Old scale was 10lbs lighter. The "Old Me" would have kept the old scale...the "New Me" accepts the higher starting weight, because it's correct. So be it. Trying not to be discouraged, because in all truthfulness I've been convincing myself the lower scale weight was accurate and not admitting the doctor's scale was actually the accurate one. The old scale was voice-only, no readout, and it was whole pounds only. Now I'll be able to know the smallest incremental changes down...or up. Plus it automatically calculates 13 categories (BMI, muscle, metabolic age, etc.). Now on to doing measurements. Then I'll feel like I'm actually starting the new me and the weight-loss journey I need to continue, and will get back to doing the daily diary tracking, and being involved in the Community again. I had backed away for a few days until I got the new scale & updated everything.
Started this weight-loss journey 2 years ago at 314, now starting this phase at 249. Goal 150, so "99 bottles of beer on the wall"...oops! Guess that's not an appropriate song to kick things off! Especially since I don't like beer. (Used to sing that on road trips as a kid to pass the time).
Thanks for your encouragement and support! WE CAN DO THIS!!

Cheers!

You’re doing great! Funny thing is, though, when I saw your post start off with the name of the scale, I thought you were going to sell scales! Glad you’re talking about your weight loss, instead, after all. There are enough marketers out there! 🤣
Nice weight loss progress, though!

NewNameNewMe...lol! I only posted the brand because I had looked through so many and read so many reviews that I figured I'd share it in case anyone else may be needing a new scale. I'd had my old talking scale for 25 yrs and it was in full pounds only. Figured I should update it while starting the tracking diary and making the changes. Good luck on your journey!

Thanks! My journey is never done. When I hit my goal weight, the goal is no longer to lose weight, but rather, to make better food choices while maintaining! Weight loss turns into maintenance, but becoming healthier doesn’t, for me.

NewNameNewMe...you're right...it's a lifelong effort. We may be at the beginning of our weight loss (or gain) journey, in the middle, or have reached our target, but once we've struggled with a weight issue it's always going to be there. How we choose to move forward is the key. Take care!
