You know, I haven't actually weighed myself in the better part of a decade as, at least where I am, scales generally max out at 250, 300 if I'm lucky. I just picked up (well, ordered and got delivered via UPS) a scale. It's a scale that can digitally gauge up to 750 lbs. It has this awesome detached display with a computer port on it to connect to a PC.
I actually found myself sitting on one of my steps that leads upstairs, staring down at it while it sat on the floor. I wanted to know... the number. I had always just kind of guessed based on pictures I've seen of others online who tell their weight and show pictures, whether I'm bigger or smaller etc... but I've never really KNOWN for sure.
So... tonight I broke down and turned on the display, let it zero, then got on the scale... 469 lbs. I could cut myself in half, and still have both halves be considered clinically obese on a BMI scale. Now, I'm not hating on it. Just never really knew the number. It's... an odd thing to funnel through the mind when you know for sure.
Anyone else delve through the same mystery and find an odd revelation on the other side?
