Still trying to loose.

Summer is here and I am trying very hard to pull myself away from the computer and get more active. I only want to loose a little bit of weight and just tone up in general. My first step toward this goal was to buy new scales. I had an ancient dial type scale but recently bought a very simple digital scale and it has been great. I can now see what i have put on. My problem is that I can become addicted to the scale when I am trying to lose weight and hope on all the time which is counter productive. I am trying to only weigh myself once a week.
