Get off the scale!
A scale can’t measure health, fitness, talent, purpose, personality, spirit, or love.
A scale can’t measure how good a worker, parent, friend or partner you are.
A scale can’t measure your insight, sense of humour or self esteem. Get off the scale!
A scale can’t tell you how enchanting your eyes are.
A scale can’t express how wonderful your hair looks when the sun shines on it.
A scale can’t thank you for your compassion and contagious smile.
A scale can’t admire you for your perseverance when challenged in life. Get off the scale!
The only thing a scale can give you is a numerical reflection of your relationship with gravity. That’s it!
Don’t give the scale more power than it has earned!
If, for some reason, you feel you must step on, I want you to take note of the number, then
get off the scale and live your life!
Enough said for now. Until next time, I remain . . . Yours in Fitness!
I wish image-lead industries in society (entertainment, fitness, beauty etc.) would encourage people to go by how they feel, and not by how much they weigh. A scale doesn’t know your bone density or muscle mass, and it most certainly won’t give you a hug if you feel discouraged from the number it gives you!
