That scale...
Yes, occasionally, it says what I want it to say and makes my day.
However, most of the time it fails me.
It's especially disheartening when you feel like you're having a "skinny day". You jump on there feeling good about yourself, thinking it will be a good number. Then *CRASH* *BANG* all your hopes and dreams for the day are wiped out.
Today wasn't one of those days, my feelings and the scale's numbers were accurate ( went down). Still, I fight with myself to stay away from that nasty thing. I know it disappoints me most of the time, yet I just can't stay away. Curious, I guess.
Still, whenever I see that number and it's not what I had hoped for... I tell myself this:
"It's not what the scale says that matters. What matters is how YOU feel and how YOUR CLOTHES feel." So, even though that scale may not say what I want it to, I still feel good and feel a change in the way my clothes fit. That's all that matters.
Hey Steph, I'm totally stalking you from the military wives site. Hope I haven't creeped you out! lol I followed you.. Wanna be blog buddies?
ReplyDelete... and yeah..I can totally identify with the scale... and TRY to tell myself the say thing. So why do we still HAVE the scale anyway?
"Why do we still HAVE the scale anyway?" -- Very good question. I do not have an answer, and probably never will, haha!
