>>2214564Being in denial and hating the truth are obvious answers to your question. However, my mother, myself, and many women believe that having a scale around can grow into an unhealthy obsession. Going off of how you feel and look in the mirror puts you more in tune with your body. It also forces you to create specific goals when it comes to your physique, not just hitting some magic number you think will make you look great. Of course, this only applies to women who are already slim and in decent shape. This is more about being honest with yourself, not some weird fat acceptance mindset. I mean how retarded do you have to be to need a scale to tell you you're fat anyways? It's just another excuse people use, like oh I didn't even realize I'd gained weight tee hee! (Refusing to accept blame for being a lazy cunt and eating like garbage.) I get weighed at my yearly physicals and I've never been over 108. Hiding the scale at a public gym is just juvenile though.
