Breaking Up with the Scale: 30 Day Challenge

I have started and stopped this journey more times than I care to admit. Every time I do, it is because my lack of self control when it comes to sweets of any variety, and my obsession with the scale. If it wasn't moving as fast as I thought it should, my motivation was shot, and that little voice that says "Well, the scale didn't move. Why does it matter if you just have a few cookies?" would win out every time. Not this time.
I took the battery out of my scale yesterday morning. I refuse to make this about a stupid number. I refuse to measure my success by some preconceived notion that my scale should move a designated amount every week. I've decided that for the next 30 days, I will not weigh myself at all. I got my initial weight yesterday, and that's it. At the end of the 30 days (August 22nd for me), I will weigh myself again.. and no matter what number shows up on my scale, I will be okay with it. I will be okay with it because I will know that I busted my *kitten* every single day to get to that number. I will not let it define me. I will only let it make me that much more determined.
If you need a scale intervention or if this sounds like something you want in on, comment! Message me! Just do it! The more the merrier =0D
