The Scale, the enemy!

Today was a good day, my body was really efficient this morning while I was doing my cardio but my mind was elsewhere, my mind was on my ennemy: the scale. I know that a lot of different aspects need to be taken into consideration when you weight yourself....but I am obssesive. I even bought a Weight Watchers scale yesterday.

What is difficult is that I work so much on the training and eating aspect that I forget that there are other things that affect your weight: stress level, tiredness (not enought sleep), I'm building up on muscle or many more reasons. I decided just now that I am gonna relax, take it easy, not put too much pressure on myself and just bring it.

The solution is to only weight myself once a week, concentrate myself on doing the best I can and make sure that I stay on track.

The reaction I am having is normal, I've been working out now for about a month and I am not getting the results I am hoping for, want to lose faster, but this is the moment when usually people abandon their diets and just go back to the their old bad habits.  I want to encourage all of you to never give up, the importance
is to keep on going, if you feel like you hit a plateau, change your diet, change your work out routine and make sure that you go up in intensity, that you ALWAYS push yourself harder.

After writing this post I feel much better and now I can move on.

How do you feel about your scale?
