viewsThat dang SCALE ruins my day!!!
By tequilakatrina, Saturday, July 17, 2010, 6 commentsI just got off my scale. I know better not to get on that sucker too often! It generally never looks back at me and says, "You did it Katherine, great job the past 2 weeks on your eating plan! What number do you want me to shoot out at you BC you certainly derserve it?"
I got on the scale BC I know in my business that the scale does help you keep your weight on track and if it goes up to a place you don't like (or down to a place, like sure! ) you can quickly do something about it before the numbers get out of hand!
I am PISSED! The numbers were NOT what I wanted to see (although kinda knew I would ;-( ) and now my day is going to be horribly obsessed with THOSE numbers. Those numbers in the grand scheme of my body-fat ratio were just fine and truly no biggie to you or anyone else for that fact. But to me, I will not enjoy my day as much as I would have had I have KEPT AWAY from that dang scale.
Why does the scale have to determine our moods? I am serious! Maybe we should throw them away and use our clothes as a determinant of where we are with our weight. I know I have certain jeans and shorts that will let me know immediately upon snapping a button or zipping the zipper if I am just right or a bit to fluffy. The over flow of a MUFFIN TOP is all the scale I truly need!!!
How do you feel about the scale?

scales
I finally put mine (I had three, all giving me a different number daily) up in the attic, stopped weighing in at Weight Watchers, and even walk past the free scale at the Publix. I have a pair of size 8 pants from The Gap that is my goal, and I just try them on once a week. Much less stress, guilt, angst. My self worth will not be determined by a digital readout!
the scale
Yes sista YES!!!! I hear you loud and clear. Our self worth is WORTH so much more than a dang (texas slang word I have been using instead of cussing ;-) digital readout! Thanks so much for reading/commenting on my blog, I am new and excited to be a part of the SKIRT team. Make sure and let all your friends know that are interested in health and weight loss, about my new blog!

My husband lets me get away
My husband lets me get away with pretty much anything, he does this so he can make a few requests that can NEVER be broken. One of the top three of his demands is that I never purchase or bring a scale into our house. He threw my old one away. I have to say my life is better when I don't judge myself on numbers (he also blocks his ears when I talk about how I'm a size 3 now but I was a 00 when we met- he honestly doesn't care). But I agree as long as the clothes I love and feel the most comfortable in fit me- I say screw the scales!
Oh yeah, welcome to skirt! I
Oh yeah, welcome to skirt! I just read your profile info and you sound like I blast. I also enjoy the tequila and my good friend vodka, but also live a healthy lifestyle. I love that you don't think a drink and health don't mix like so many other people do, I think my good friend vodka has kept my blood pressure "absolutely perfect"-that's what the dr says every time, even though everyone in my family has very high blood pressure. I tell my mom that vodka and I work together to keep me from being too stressed. Ok now I'm just getting goofy, but I'll spread the word about your blog. Xoxo-katy

I try to avoid the scales if at all possible, but the dang doctors always insist that I weigh when I visit them....:)
