To Weigh or Wait – That is the Question…

How often do you weigh yourself – if at all? It’s a question that has always made me wonder – is my daily weighing in healthy or harmful?

There are a bunch of conflicting theories and practices that vary from doctors to dieters to health buffs and fitness aficionados. Some say that

weighing in on a daily basis is a good thing; seeing the numbers on the scale will halt you from overeating and overindulging during meals, or make

you run just a little bit faster on that treadmill during your workout that day.

On the other hand, those anti-scale say that weight loss is truly defined in how your clothes fit and how you feel in them. What’s the best way to gage

a weight loss? Buy a pair of pants at your ‘ideal’ size, eat right and exercise regularly, then 2-3 months later, try on those pants.

While both theories seem like healthy options, I personally prefer the daily weighing in. For example – if it’s Friday morning and I decide that I’m

going to be going out to dinner that evening… and then drinks afterwards… and then the inevitable 4am snack after the club/bar/party… Well,

Saturday morning when I drag my bloated, hungover self onto the scale I shouldn’t be surprised that my weight will most likely have fluctuated about

2-3 pounds from the previous day.

This in turn will keep me in check for the rest of the weekend: I won’t deprive myself of going out and having a good time, but I’ll think twice about

ordering the Texas sized burger and maybe opt for the grilled chicken and veggies. And I’ll still have that drink with dinner… except this time it

won’t be a 1,000 calorie margarita (with the salt, please). Instead I’ll order a nice glass of red wine (which is good for the heart and at reducing breast

cancer – don’t forget October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month!).

Which ever side of the fence you’re on – either pro-scale or against –remember that the key to losing weight and staying fit is not by crash dieting;

balanced eating habits (that allow for a few indulgences here and there) and working out consistently are key!

In the final two days of

" I Am Woman, Fear My Roar!

March is Women's History Month and at the "request" of editor-at-large Griselle "Grizzy" Rodriguez, resident Fitness Nazi Jessica Manning and

other female staffers, Quiet Lunch is going to spend the entire month kissing up to the ladies and telling them how pretty they are -- what? But it was

meant to be a complim -- Okay, we just got word from Grizzy and Jessica that what we just said was completely sexist.

But not to worry, we have the whole month to get the hang of it!

" Amber Alert: Where is Colin Powell?

Answer: Happily retired, Powell recently quoted

saying this about the Obama administration, " . .

. many of his decisions have been quite sound.

The financial system was put back on a stable

basis." For those organizations, communities and

individuals interested in contributing to dropout

prevention efforts by learning and sharing

promising practices, you can catch Powell
