Does anyone else do this? I started keeping track of my weight/calories, started a diet and realized I'm weighing myself up to 15 times per day. I'm now eating 600 calories a day which is better than what I was eating but I keep weighing myself as if my weight will magically change in an hour. Usually I have trouble sticking to diets but it's become sort of an obsession now. I check myfitnesspal app about 20 times a day. I'm exercising like crazy, my weight is always on my mind constantly upsetting me and making me worried that I'm not losing enough fast enough. This started when I checked my BMI and found out I'm officially considered overweight, not by a huge amount but still it made me angry at myself. Very frustrated because I gained 25 lbs since starting the meds I'm on. I look skinny according to other people but that's not what the scale says. This is driving me crazy.
