Omg the scale is the devil

Hey fitness fam. A few days ago I decided to take my health serious and signed up for kickboxing. And boy do I tell u it kicked my a$* lol but I made it thru, asthma and all, before all I stepped on the scale and that sucker said 296... omg. Scale say what? 4lbs away from 300 I was then at my biggest point ever. Today, 1 week later I am down 6 lbs and so proud of myself. I stay motivated by just making little goals ie: doing a full burpee instead of loss of lbs. anyone else have any motivational tips and stories of their devil scale? Share please

    I take measurements as well, and whenever the scale is doing its tricks, I take the measurements. It’s always a loss on at least some part of my body.

    Yes. XD My closet is full of beautiful things.

    But! But! Then you have days like today... when you unearth a treasure and put it on and WHAM. It fits!!
