For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for June 10, 2018

seems like something Garfield would also do

It’s that heavy towel!

I remember those kinds of scales. You adjusted the little dial until the weight showed zero with nobody standing on it. I haven’t seen one of those in years, but I am pretty sure the one I had did not make sound effects like, “TOING!!” or “KACHING!!” when I got on it.

Lose the scale, El. It just contributes to low self-esteem.

Get a balance-scale. I got tired of the other types giving me a different reading every time I got on, (even if it was only 30 seconds later, it was still different). With the old fashion balance-scale I get some consistency.

Her constant and ongoing dream, which unfortunately will never come out as she wishes. Doesn’t for me either

Wow…is it “Scale Day”? Garfield also had a scale bit on it.

You need a hard floor, not a scale on carpeting.

Here we go again…another strip of “Elly vs. Belly”.

Loose the towel.. for starters.. If numbers are important.. consider a full body shave and exhaling while on the scale will also help.

Also make sure your hair is dry. If my hair is wet, it adds 2 lbs. That’s super important (to me anyway) when getting on the scale.

Good grief,if you’re going to obsess about it,don’t forget to go to the bathroom before you weigh yourself.

Honesty is the best policy. But if you’re a scale and exhibit it you may end up in a rummage sale.

The scale of honesty won’t be found in D.C. ;(

I’m sure El wants an honest weight just as much as she tells people her true age when asked.

If my wife had 3 Dr appointment in one day she always use The One scale that weighed the less

Heck, it looks like her feet are contributing at least 20 pounds to her weight.

Been there, hence why I have officially decided to go digital
