Don't depend on the scale!

There are a lot of women (and men) out there that step on the scale every day.  What an unpleasant way to start your day!  

Stop depending on the scale to tell you the answers you already know.  If you feel like your pants are fitting too tight, then that is the time to do something about it.  If your pants fit fine then move on and enjoy your day!

There are so many variables to your weight.  It can be up five pounds or down five pounds depending on what time of day it is that you weigh yourself or whether you have had anything to eat or drink.  It is unhealthy to be checking your weight all the time.  It puts too much emphasis on a number.

Plus, it really is true that muscles weighs more than fat.  A person can be a size smaller in their jeans but weigh 5-10 pounds more than they "think" they should weigh.  The scale is NOT accurate.  

We all need to focus more on feeling good and having a positive mental image of ourselves.  YOU tell yourself - don't let the scale tell you!
