82: Let's talk about that darn number on the scale

Let’s talk about weight, and that darn number on the scale. Perhaps you have a love/ hate relationship with it. Maybe it keeps you accountable to your fitness and nutrition, and you don’t attach emotion to it. Maybe you never weigh yourself (or never weigh yourself when you’re ‘off track’). Maybe you weigh yourself 10 times a day. Maybe that number in the morning impacts your entire day.

The scale is one tool, just like a kitchen knife is a tool. You can use the kitchen knife to prepare a wonderful meal, or you could seriously harm someone. It’s neither good nor bad, but it DOES have limitations. In this article, I’m going to go over some of the limitations of the scale and what you can do instead.
