Primadonnas, please remember: You are more than a number on the scale!
For some reason, women tend to measure their worth based on their weight. We all have the dreaded number in our head that we never want to see on the scale. And we all have that number we hope to see on the scale someday, and we think about how great we will feel when we reach it…
We are making ourselves miserable for NO REASON!
Listen, I’m guilty of it too. I’ve learned from it. I’ve been down to my goal weight, and I wasn’t this confident female that I thought I would be. I’ve seen my highest weight more than once on the scale, and I let it determine how my day went. I’ve been there. I know how you feel. I know the thought process.
I’m here to tell you that your weight doesn’t matter. Not only does it not define who you are as a human being, it also doesn’t define whether you should label yourself “fit” or “fat”.
I found a couple pictures to really drive this point home:
As you can see, these females look more ‘fit’ at a higher weight than they did at a lower weight. Muscle does weigh more than fat. Muscle is tighter, more dense, and takes up less space in the body, thus making you appear slimmer.
As long as you are eating healthy and being consistent with your workouts, the number on the scale should not be a contributing factor in your everyday life. In fact, I suggest you track your progress through pictures instead of using the scale. If you must weigh yourself, do it once a month.
I can’t stress this enough. Don’t let a scale ruin your day, your life, your self-worth. And don’t let the number on the scale make you give up on your fitness goals, or any goal.
YOU are more than a number!
Stay Strong, Gorgeous
