You know, the funny thing is that the Americans weigh themselves in pounds and the big yee-ha's they give themselves when they lose half a pound makes me think how terribly hard we are on ourselves when we lose half a kilo, which is nearly twice the American cause for celebration.

I think pounds is better, because it looks more like you've lost, eh? And 9 stone doesn't look anything like as bad as 68, or whatever the equivalent is.

But... I weigh in kilos because I'm too lazy to bend down and change the dial.  Roll Eyes

 Yes Me too! But also I can't get my head round pounds and stones - but I'm the opposite with height... 180cm means nothing to me, but say 6 foot 3 inches, then i know that is tall...
