This site could use a weight tracker

[carbonite]

under the testimonial topic. Something like a "START" "CURRENT" and "GOAL" category...with a percentage to goal.  Just a suggestion.

My opinion only! I am afraid that if the bullitin boards became specific in regards to personal information, you would loose some participation in the information shared and the comrarderie among the members... I for one would not be willing to give my start weight to anyone until I have reached my goal. Right now we all share the same concerns, and that is and should be that we are here for each other regardless of how much you weigh or how much you want to loose. Our common interest is that we all loose and feel good doing it. Numbers are not important. Thanks, Mike

Well, if anyone is interested, there is an EXCELLENT site called fitday, www.fitday.com , that will allow you to do this.  You can even allow others to see your fitday.  I've been using it for a long while now...and it's free.  Just login and you can see information on the type of foods you intake, find nutritional information on foods, track your exercise, and track your weight, too.

Hi All,

I have a weight tracker on my personal computer. It is freeware. You can download it & keep it for yourself only to see your progress.
I actually downloaded it before I started LDL, but when I started LDL I cleared it completely. I do enter info daily, but not weight. I enter something in the notes area & now I will started entering whether I excercised or not since there is a place for that.

You can find it here if interested:

I like seeing the graph from a month ago & how much it has dropped since I started LDL last month on the 3rd. You set a goal weight & I can see it getting closer.

Well, we're all different, but I've done the best on this diet that I've ever done on a diet, and I've never ever weighed so infrequently before!

I know the weight is going by the way my body and my clothes look and feel and by the fact that I can wear my wedding ring again -- but I absolutely do NOT want to weigh yet!

Not sure when I will weigh myself again, but I'll let you know the results when I do!

Yours, blissfully liberated from the tyranny of the scales, and getting skinnier by the day,

rhea...i've already lost track of what i weigh....i don't even really know what i weighed when i started(the book said not to weigh yourself,so i didn't)...i just approximated.....
  i agree with you completely about being free of that scale...when i used to diet,i used to weigh myself every day(sometimes more than once a day)
  i like that...blissfully liberated from the tyranny of the scales....................niki

It's so nice to know that the good LORD has freed us from the shackles of the scale!  I feel that ldl is long term and so enjoyable that I focus less on the scale than I ever have on any other "diet".  Don't get me wrong, I still want to lose weight but I just love the ldl lifestyle so much that it's only part of the whole picture.  I see and feel myself getting healthier by the day.  I feel that my health is so much more important than a number on a scale!  PTL

Re: Tracker

Perhaps you could start one with: amount of weight to lose, how long on LDL, how much has been lost, and how many pounds to reach goal.  It might get more to respond.
