Big Lots, Big Butt

I'm at least 35, perhaps 40 pounds overweight. While strides have been made with exercise and food choices, the purchase of a scale has been on the back burner since the beginning. Not because I didnt want it, because I did. But I didnt want to pay $70 for it as well as have it look up at me everyday with it's accusing eye. See the difference?

Tonight after ensemble practice, I went to Big Lots! . . . .just to see what a scale might cost there, reasoning that a $20 scale would burn a MUCH smaller hole in the pocket of my big girl pants than 4x that.

Try six bucks! I bought a six dollar scale. It's plain and understated. It's not digital and doesnt have a BFI calculator. But it was six bucks. Who cares!

And (drum roll please) I have lost five pounds.
