It makes no sense to me.
How you can lose pounds, but not inches. Or even more... inches, but not pounds. It's illogical. ;-)
However, I do find it's good motivation. If the scale hasn't moved much for a few days, try measuring.
I have stopped tracking every day because it was making me crazy. I obsess over every gram of everything and that didn't seem healthy for my brain. I'm tracking a day or two (on MFP) every few days. Seems to be working for me.
About 4 1/2 weeks out. At my lowest weight since my 5 year old was born. Pretty happy
you can burn fat that is on the inside around your organs , that is more important health wise than the outside fat
you can lose inches and not pound as your body rearranges the fat you have
I weight at the most once a week but mostly every 2 weeks
but I weight and track all my food on mfp every single day with out exception , that is the secret of losing all your extra weight and keeping it off
I have a scale that measures body fat as well as weight, so I'm hopeful that even if my weight isn't moving, my body fat still will be!

Hahaha, I hear you on that! I'm 10 days out and I feel like this WLS is all I talk about at home. I must be driving my family crazy!
But, if you want to go for it, I've got the Withings scale and it rocks... but if you're a Fitbit person, I'd go with the Fitbit Aria. I also linked my scale to trendweight.com which is AWESOME.
