Overcoming the SCALE!
“I gained a pound this week! What am I doing wrong?”
“My weight stayed the same this week! This isn’t working!”
“I only lost two pounds this week! I want to quit!”
•
Do any of these sound like you?!
If so, time to RELAX.
It is NOT possible to gain 5 or 3 or 1 pound of fat overnight. Absolutely impossible! Body fluctuations of 1-5 pounds a day are perfectly NORMAL.
•
👉🏻The following factors impact the scale:
Stress
Hormones
Salt Intake
Swelling from hard training
Diuretics -Alcohol, caffeine, sodas
Meal Timing
Menstrual Cycle
Sleep
Bowel Movements
Glycogen stores
Time weight is taken
•
The scale Is helpful in that it provides a piece of data that can help to indicate whether progress is moving in the right direction or not over a LONG COURSE OF TIME. NOT in the time-frame of a few days or weeks. Weight loss is not linear. NEVER will be.
•
If you are finding yourself overly concerned with the scale, time to put it away. Focus on other areas of progress/improvement. This is when accountability is important. Don’t have a nutritionist/coach? Time to think about one.
