I don't think what he did on the scale is unusual. My husband weighted down his pockets and wore heavier and heavier clothing as he progressed through treatment. I tracked his morning weight at home so I always had an accurate gauge of where he was at.

When I told the nurse about it while he was in treatment, she didn't seem at all surprised.

Glad things are looking up a little for Xmas.
