scales are stupid. scales lie. scales are not friendly, they are cold inanimate objects. they state facts. they don't care how you feel about their facts. for the last few weeks i've been attempting to re-train my thought process. seeing the scale for what it is... a tool. it's not my friend... even if when it says something positive i feel like i just got a bear hug from it. it's not my enemy... even if i wanna throw it out the window when it tells me something i don't want to hear (but always resist because then how would i weigh myself?!! lol). i'm getting better at distancing myself... somewhat.
my new work out plan makes me feel incredible and i think that makes the scale thing less of an issue.
but then mr. scale gets wily. he realizes i'm abandoning my dependency on him... and he does something crazy...
for the last 2 days mr. scale told me that i weigh 149.4... and the day before that 149.6.
and as i previously mentioned, my mind imploded.
but you know what? maybe he'll say 151 tomorrow. i'll still be here, doing my thang. it's hard and i don't think we'll ever really break up... but mr. scale can take a seat on the back burner as far as i'm concerned.

ReplyDeleteKeep working and keep putting Mr. Scale in his place. He is nothing more than a random reality check here and there.
