⭐ SOD THE SCALES ⭐
–
Gaining weight doesn’t always mean you’ve gained fat ❌
–
Long-term maybe you’ve gained muscle 🔥
-
Short-term: maybe you’re retaining water 💧
-
The scale can be deceiving – especially if you’re strength training 🏋🏻♀️
-
The headline? 🤔
–
Scale weight is NOT measuring what many people think it is 🙈
–
That’s not to say that tracing our weight isn’t a useful tool – it is!
–
Long-term trends (i.e. comparing weekly averages over months) indicate whether or not we’re in a calorie deficit ⚖️
–
Which, if our goal is fat loss, is important to know 🔥
-
However, day-to-day, weight loss is zig-zaggy 😂
-
Your weight WILL fluctuate often – so stop obsessing day-to-day 🤦🏻
–
Instead of focusing on weight, try focusing on things that are more direct measures of your improved quality of life:
–
✅ The way you feel
✅ Your energy levels
✅ The way your clothes fit
✅ The way you look in the mirror
✅ Your confidence
✅ You’re eating a healthier diet
✅ You’re getting stronger
Stay awesome & keep going! ✌️
