YOUR DAILY WEIGHT CHART
This is the very personal part of the diet program for you. Set
yourself a final goal for your weight loss. What do you think your ideal weight should be? Check the Desired Weight Chart
in Chapter 2. At what weight do you look and feel best? Make a simple chart like the one that follows, and keep it daily.
Its a good idea to keep it well beyond the 2 week Diet period, too.

THE FOUR-POUND STOP SIGNAL
There is no more useful ritual to add to your personal health
program than a daily weighing-in.
For cardiac patients it is essential; for the rest of us it is extremely helpful. Weigh
yourself, a la mode, every morning; if you do it with clothes on, you begin to kid yourself that the extra pound and a half
is really your shirt or blouse. Any time that your scale hits four pounds over your desired weight, reach for SMD-quickly.
Stay on it until the four pounds are gone. It shouldnt take a week.(p.23)

Members Suggest:
"Tarnower's weight chart
is rather severe. Do you know what your BMI or body fat are? Body fat percentage is the best way to determine whether or not
you're a healthy weight. Your doctor or gym can help you determine that.
Weighing everyday does not work for all members.
Some people find it more encouraging to weigh in once
a week, due to daily fluctuations. Read the Stalling & Gaining link for more info.
WTH (Waist to Hip) ratio is another tool for determining
your health status. Sometimes our bodies take time to adjust to the weight loss and the scale shows no movement but the measurements
will show progress.
