Weight Loss and Diet Tip - The Scale Isn’t Everything

Weight loss is more then just watching the scale.
We make the decision to start eating healthy and shaping up and then we
become obsessed with the scale. I have to admit when I first started
my weight loss journey, I would weigh myself 3 or 4 times a
day! I have learned that there is a lot more to weight loss
and getting in shape then what the scale is saying. We need to
understand that if we are weight training we are gaining muscle which can
affect what our scale is telling us. Losing inches around our hips
and waste will not show up on the scale, but in our clothes. There
is a healthy weight (scale number) that we need to be at depending on our
age and frame size. When starting a plan for yourself, try to focus
more on your clothes size changing. Our scales may say we haven’t
lost much but we could be going down 1 or 2 sizes. As long as we are
seeing a difference in our shape and the clothes we are wearing, the scale
should just guide us on our healthy weight goal. Remember the scale
isn’t everything so don’t let it discourage you
